DescriptionPosed publicity photographs of men and women, apparently prominent Connecticut Democrats. The men wear suits. The women wear dresses, high-heeled shoes, stockings, and jewelry, including necklaces, earrings, and a ring. The women also wear makeup, including lipstick. Some men wear glasses. One woman wears a floral corsage and a sash that reads: "VOTE / JOHN F. KENNEDY / FOR PRESIDENT". Most people are smiling. A desk with a blotter, pens, a framed photograph, and a telephone on it, is in the foreground of 2002.108.3.
