Original vintage glossy 8 x 7 UPI telephoto of President John F. Kennedy broadcasting from Washington on February 8, 1963, the caption noting: "Pres. Kennedy…broadcasts a message of American ideals overseas in a brief address highlighting the opening of a new Voice of America transmitter complex at Greenville, N.C. Speaking over VOA circuits from his office, Kennedy said 'today the voice is strong where it once was weak.' He said the transmitter complex will mean VOA broadcasts 'can better reach those whose masters seek to drown it out with jamming.'" Reverse bears a United Press International Photo credit stamp. In fine condition.
