At the White House on October 8, 1924, President Calvin Coolidge addressed a group of radio men, a moment that sets this picture apart from the other Hoover and Coolidge views on the board. Coolidge had taken office after Warren G. Harding's death in 1923 and was seeking his own term that fall, while radio broadcasting was expanding quickly across the country. Herbert Hoover, then Secretary of Commerce, oversaw radio licensing and was a prominent voice on the new medium's growth. The National Photo Company made the glass negative, which came to the Library of Congress as a gift in 1947. The record notes that its coating may show streaks from natural deterioration.
