These photos were sent together as a postcard to voters during McCarthy's successful 1946 campaign for the Republican nomination to the U. S. Senate. The photos show (top) McCarthy as a Marine during World War II, (center) as a Circuit Court Judge, and (bottom) as a Marine intelligence officer. The back of the postcard carried the slogan "McCarthy for Senator."
