Description

Unique 1961 New Jersey candids

Collection of ten original candid photos, 5 x 4 and 4 x 5, of an event in Trenton, New Jersey, on November 2, 1961, at which President Kennedy gave remarks on the cooperation between federal and local government to improve the state, with comments on jobs, Social Security, and housing. Kennedy is seen in eight of the images, with most showing him at the podium, and the others depict gubernatorial candidate Richard J. Hughes, who went on to be elected governor a month later. The photos are affixed to larger scrapbook pages. Includes an original two-page press release covering the event. In overall fine condition. A neat set of photos showing President Kennedy on the campaign trail for a fellow Democrat.
