In 1962 Marvin Griffin attempted a political comeback by running for governor of Georgia (the office he left in 1959) against Carl Sanders. Sanders defeated Griffin in this race, in large part by playing up the corruption issue that had plagued Griffin's previous administration.
This election was the last of the great campaigns in which candidates held large rallies and barbecues. After the election Griffin said, "Everybody that ate my barbecue I don't believe voted for me." The 16mm films in this collection were created during this 1962 gubernatorial campaign. Most of the films, roughly 30 minutes long each, show Griffin speaking in towns around Georgia.
