Title

"Les AuCoin. He stands up for Oregon." 1982 campaign booklet

Description

A booklet from US Congressman Les AuCoin's 1982 re-election campaign for Oregon's 1st District. The booklet features numerous photos of Congressman AuCoin and his family, as well as a record of his then recent accomplishments in Congress. Pat McCormick, Chief of Staff for Oregon House Majority Leader Les AuCoin (1973-1974), had noted in private communications that this booklet is "an example of a tabloid-size mini newspaper with large photos and major messages in headlines, one to a page. We 'borrowed' that format from Joe Biden who'd used in his first (1972) campaign for the Senate."
This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. AuCoin served in the Oregon House of Representatives (1971-1975) and in the United States House of Representatives from Oregon's 1st District (1975-1993).
