Additional Details

These come from the files of a Massachusetts newspaper which undoubtedly took special interest in Kennedy's successful 1960 presidential campaign. 14 of the photographs date from before 1960, including a 1953 wedding photograph (retouched). Three photographs of Kennedy as a young man in the 1940s were apparently printed in the 1960s.
