A fascinating piece of political history on vinyl. This record brings together the voices of two of America's most famous presidents, with JFK's complete 1961 Inaugural Address on one side and a selection of Franklin D. Roosevelt's most important wartime and presidential speeches on the other.

JFK's inaugural address is especially striking to hear as an original recording, while the Roosevelt side covers a much longer period, from his first inaugural address during the Great Depression through the Second World War and the final months of his presidency. It is as much a historical document as it is a vintage record.

A really interesting addition to a collection of political memorabilia, presidential recordings or vintage spoken-word LPs.

The record is in excellent condition. Not mint, but very well kept and ready to play.
