Timing is everything in life and for Herbert Hoover, the best education and really sound policies could not suppress the tidal wave that was coming. Wall Street was running wild and unchecked and eight months after this photo was taken, the roaring twenties would come crashing down with thunderous fury. Hoover here is inaugurated to the office of the President of the United States and everything seemed roses. A poignant image from the ultimate transitional period of the 20th century.
