DescriptionRe-election campaign cards for Nancy Hall. The double-sided cards read: re-elect Nancy (Mrs. "Crip") Hall (Democrat) State Treasurer. I'll Be Careful With Your Money. Ability. Integrity. Experience. Maturity." There is a picture of Nancy Hall printed on the left side of the card.

Nancy Johnson Hall (1904–1991) was the first woman in Arkansas to be elected to a constitutional office. Upon the death of her husband C.G. "Crip" Hall in 1961, she was appointed to serve the remainder of his term as secretary of state by Governor Orval Faubus. Hall then went on to be elected as Arkansas state treasurer in 1962, running unopposed in the general election as a Democrat. Hall served as treasurer for 18 years.
