Description

Adlai Stevenson II tentatively tunes the "Stevenson Candidacy" piano. In 1960, Stevenson, leader of the Democratic party, chose not to actively run for the presidential nomination. Instead, he claimed he would run only if drafted. After a tiff with emerging candidate John F. Kennedy, Stevenson geared up for a run at the National Convention in Chicago.
