EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by Louis Dalrymple in 1896, offers a humorous and thought-provoking portrayal of William McKinley's presidential campaign. Depicted as the charismatic charioteer leading the Republican Party's charge towards victory, McKinley is shown riding an elephant-shaped chariot through the heartland of America.
