Get It While I Can: 1936 Poster

Gimmie the works. Washington, D.C., December 30, 1936. Although he was elected to the United States Senate for only 60 Days--election day until January 4, 1936--Guy Howard of Minnesota, is taking full advantage of the many gratuities accorded members of the upper house of Congress. After using the Congressional stationary telegrams and mailing copies of the Congressional record to his many friends yesterday, Senator Howard was at the Senate Barber Shop bright and early today to get the works: haircut, shave, shampoo and massage. He was elected to fill the seat vacated by the death of Senator Thomas Schall. After January 4, 1936, Senator Howard will be succeeded by Senator Elmer Benson. Photograph taken December 30, 1936.
