This week’s #Harry140 photo shows a different angle of a familiar event – HST speaking at the closing session of the United Nations Conference. We don't always have motion picture footage of events, so having multiple photos can help reconstruct it. https://t.co/t6xhy1Dmod
As with another photo from earlier this year, this #Harry140 photo shows HST greeting visitors to the Truman Library! This young man in cowboy gear had his picture taken with HST & then sent this copy of the photo to Mr. Truman after his visit. https://t.co/e4Tk8Lz01e
In the early days of the Library, visitors might get the chance to meet Mr. Truman if they arrived or left at the same time as him. The Cropper family did that & took a picture with HST at the administrative entrance to the Library in 1960 for this week’s #Harry140 photo.
HST often received gifts & tokens of appreciation from groups that came to see him at the White House. In this 1952 #Harry140 photo, the National Cartoonist’s Society gives HST this bust of Abraham Lincoln. This bust is part of our Museum collection! https://t.co/QWIY7ugWkR
