Anyone have a guess as to what year this is? 

Adlai Stevenson, 1952

Adlai Ewing Stevenson II was an American politician and diplomat who was the United States ambassador to the United Nations from 1961 until his death in 1965. He served as the 31st governor of Illinois from 1949 to 1953 and was the Democratic Party nominee for president of the United States in 1952 and 1956, losing both elections to Dwight D. Eisenhower. Here he is, being driven down Colfax Avenue in 1952 on the campaign trail.
