An Important Western Collection
JFK's Presidential Inaugural Ball, held in January 1961 in the National Guard Armory building, Washington, D.C., was a starry affair, featuring performances by many of the top entertainers of the day under the conductorship of Leonard Bernstein. At the top of the bill was Frank Sinatra, shown in this atmospheric shot leaving the auditorium after his rehearsal.
