Notes |
Alice McDonald is a politician and was elected the Kentucky superintendent of public instruction in 1983. This item was donated by Drexell R. Davis in December of 1986. Drexell R. Davis, a self-described "Yellow Dog" Democrat, held several elected positions in the Kentucky state government. His thirty-three years of public service prompted his interest in collecting political memorabilia. |
