Bold and dramatic original photograph taken November 2, 1944 when Truman was still "Senator Truman" during a campaign stop for President Roosevelt in East Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Incredible photograph of a heavily male crowd and Truman addressing the crowd that was so large that many can actually be seen behind the podium. This photograph was used in a Pennsylvania daily newspaper, and includes on the reverse a copy of a portion of the photo that actually appeared in the newspaper. On the front you can see how the newspaper intended to "crop" the photograph by applying whiteout to show the press room where to crop the photograph. Would look great framed
Historical Notes
Cropping a photo is a term used in the newspaper industry to identify where a photograph will be "cropped" to accentuate what the editor felt was the most important part of the photograph.
