~AT A 1952 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN EVENT, A PHOTOGRAPHER NOTICED A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF ADLAI STEVENSON’S SHOE AND QUICKLY TOOK A PHOTO OF IT. THIS PHOTO LATER (1953) WON THE PHOTOGRAPHER THE PULITZER PRIZE. THE IMAGE WAS THE INSPIRATION FOR MANY “HOLE IN THE SHOE” CAMPAIGN ITEMS AND THE SLOGAN, “BETTER A HOLE IN THE SHOE, THAN A HOLE IN THE HEAD!”
