Subject: [Leica] IMG: From the Cigar Box, Ike in Ohio in 52, Vicki at Piano

Truly from a cigar box, fitted with cardboard dividers, these negatives have 
been rolled up for 55 years.  The first, of Ike campaigning in Ohio in 1952, 
from the back of a train car, shows quite a different approach from 
presidential campaigns of today.

The second, of a cousin at the piano in 1952, is one of my favorite shots.

Both with Leica IIIa and 50/3.5 Coated Elmar.
