1964 Anti-Lyndon Johnson Support Capitol Punishment Satirical Poster. The slogan's deliberate misspelling of 'Capital' as 'Capitol' Punishment cleverly ties the call for punishment directly to Washington politicians and the U.S. Capitol, making the poster's anti-LBJ message more pointed than a simple reference to the death penalty." 

 

Historical Notes

"The intentional use of 'Capitol Punishment' instead of 'Capital Punishment' shifts the target from criminals to the occupants of the U.S. Capitol, underscoring the poster's anti-LBJ political message.
