About this postcard
The green-sided Harding Home in Marion, Ohio, stands behind a white-columned porch, with American flags and a crowd gathered on the lawn and steps. A gazebo stands at the right, and visitors in period dress are scattered around the grounds. The card identifies the house as the late President Harding's home and now the Harding Museum. Harding ran his 1920 presidential campaign from this front porch, greeting delegations that came to Marion from across the country. The caption calls it the "Front Porch Campaign" and recalls daily groups ranging from one person to thousands who came to pay their respects.
