Unbound. Wire photo. Image measuring approximately 6" x 7¾" on slightly larger paper. Verso with agency stamp and caption snipe tipped-on there. Photo a bit curled with horizontal creasing (but no splits) in the emulsion—presumably from being scanned for transmission—near fine. "For the first time since Civil War Reconstruction days, Negroes voted in today's Democratic Primaries in Mississippi." A striking image of two well-dressed men casting their votes in a Hines county polling booth.
