Original vintage press photo dated June 27, 1928, featuring President Calvin Coolidge. The image captures the President surrounded by a large public crowd, including numerous children, upon his first arrival at the temporary Summer White House, which was set up at the Central High School in Superior, Wisconsin.
The photo includes the original International News Chicago caption verifying the date, the President's name, and the context of the location. Politically, this trip occurred shortly after the Republican National Convention, where Coolidge’s famous declaration, "I do not choose to run for President in 1928," had cemented his decision to retire, clearing the path for his friend, Herbert Hoover, to secure the nomination just weeks earlier.
