In this 1952 photo, young Eisenhower fans show their support with a 35-foot balloon — somewhat more eye-catching than a button, no? This photo appeared in The Times on Oct. 9 of that year. Less than a month later, Eisenhower beat Adlai Stevenson in the presidential election.  More vintage Eisenhower/Nixon campaign photos in our Framework blog. Photo: Los Angeles Times
