Time for Greatness
The JFK Library just put a wealth of info online for the 50th anniversary of the ’61 inauguration. The full tally includes over a thousand audio recordings and, most importantly for us, about 1500 photos. We could easily spend all day digging through the haul—but in case you can’t, here are a few of our favorites.
