1948 Dewey Defeats Truman Press Photo of Harry Truman holding up the Chicago Daily Tribune PSA/DNA

With perhaps the most famously incorrect banner headline in the history of American journalism, this November 3, 1948 issue of the Chicago Daily Tribune loudly proclaims "DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN" from its front page.  The Tribune incorrectly predicted an election outcome that was not to be.

Offered is a later re-strike of this famous photo.  This wire photo re-ran in the Kansas City Times (Truman was from Missouri) on March 17, 1971.  Original newspaper caption attached to the back of this 8” x 7” photo.  An original TYPE 1 print from 1948 would fetch thousands of dollars.  You can own a vintage print that actually ran in a newspaper for a fraction of the price!

Historic!

Encapsulated by PSA/DNA as a TYPE IV photograph

PSA designatres a Type IV - A 2nd generation photograph (or 3rd or later generation), developed from a duplicate negative or wire transmission, during a later period (more than approximately two years after the picture was taken).
