Description:
|
Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia (1934-1945), 99th Mayor of the City of New York. 2,574 images. Fiorello H. LaGuardia served as Mayor from 1934 through 1945. LaGuardia did not employ a staff photographer; many of the images in the collection had been sent to the mayor as souvenirs of his attendance at an event. It is an eclectic collection and many photographs appear to have no relevance to the mayor or his administration. There are portraits of the mayor taken by commercial photographers.
