Original 1947 AP Wirephoto showing U.S. Secretary of State George C. Marshall addressing the United Nations General Assembly at Flushing Meadows, New York. According to the original caption, Marshall sternly demanded that the UN "save Greece" from Communist aggressive acts, placing the image squarely in the early Cold War and Greek Civil War period. The separate original caption and photograph are both mounted on the same piece of black archival paper. Overall size measures approximately 9 x 8¼ inches. Shows tape, age, handling wear and typical newsroom/archive use as pictured. This came from the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper. Strong George Marshall, United Nations, anti-Communist and Cold War subject matter.
