Franklin Delano Roosevelt

File:FDR in 1933.jpg

Original - Head-and-shoulders portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt in December 1933.

Reason

High EV, seems remarkably high quality considering its age (1933). I can't imagine a better image of FDR exists. I should probably mention this is my first FPC, so please tell me if I do anything wrong.
