And if you were lucky, you'd have been invited back in 1945!
There are other things included in this little group, too -- all told, there are nine (count them, 9) pieces of Roosevelt inauguration ephemera. Celebrate inaugural history by purchasing this great collection for $250.00!
Here ends O'Gara and Wilson Special Bulletin for today! I have to venture outside now, but at least it's a whole 20 degrees or so.

What a fabulous look at history. I wonder what the future will think of the events on Jan 20, 2009.
Thank you for sharing.
