Kinda cool - I really liked the one of Nixon in the phone booth...it just reeks of plotting & back-room dealing!!

Those shots in the old phone booths were really a "wow how things have changed" moment for me.

I love the pics of JFK stumping in the middle of the crowd. Those days are long gone.

Takes me back. My parents took us to a spot JFK was driving through, to wait and see him. My dad was so proud that when he yelled "Jack", JFK turned his head and waved to him.

Thanks for posting this, LaT. Some very cool pictures, all politics and offerings from the keepers of obscure knowledge aside.

I really liked the shots from the earliest stage of the campaign, with stepstools, garage roofs, and cars, for the stage.

It's one thing to know he had back problems, quite another to see him sprawled into the most comfortable position he can find, and still working.
