Original Associated Press wire photo dated October 5, 1947, showing President Harry S. Truman and Charles Luckman, chairman of the President's Citizens Food Committee, behind a rostrum at the White House in Washington, D.C. The caption states they had just delivered radio broadcasts urging Americans to conserve food to help hungry people in Europe. An editorial note explains that photographs were not permitted during the actual broadcast. Both men pose beside microphones in suits and ties. Measures 6½X8⅞" overall, with the caption printed directly on the photo. Tape remains on the corners, with yellowing and discoloration. Shows surface scuffs, fine scratches, scattered spots, edge wear and worn corners. From the archive of a Pittsburgh-area newspaper.
