1940 Beautiful and crystal clear photograph of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as he delivers one of his famous "Fireside Chats" on the eve of WWII. The paper caption on the back notes that the address was broadcast nation-wide and also to Europe which was already engaged into the depths of WWII. Issued by the Associated Press and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well, this is a powerful image and you can feel the pressure of the nation on Roosevelt's face.
