12 x 18 in. felt banner with machine stitched binding and white hanging cord with tassels (very minor wear to printing). Yellow printing on black felt features a portrait of Dr. King with the text: "We Shall Overcome / 1929 / 1968 / Doctor / Martin Luther King Jr. / American Negro / Public Opinion Service." 

The American Negro Public Opinion Service was a civil rights organization established in 1961 by Jesse Glass that participated in numerous demonstrations and sit-ins throughout the 1960s. Other examples (see Lot 206) include the reverse with a memorial of John F. Kennedy. The verso here is blank.
