Asunto: [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.
