ON STRIKE Metropolitan Agents Demand a Union Shop with a Substantial Paid Increase. IWIU-AFL-CIO Local 30

There is another sign underneath it which reads: ON STRIKE Prudential Insurance Workers of America. Local 30 AFL-CIO

I don't know much about labor union history, but would like to learn more. Several of these signs were found by some friends of mine who were cleaning out the basement of a home of an elderly man who passed away recently.

It would be great if someone could tell me anything about this strike and when it occurred.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.
