Pat Boland of Pennsylvania, House Whip, is pictured as he dodged the hail stones on Capitol Hill, 4/29/38Digital ID: (digital file from original negative) hec 24518 http://hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/hec.24518Reproduction Number: LC-DIG-hec-24518 (digital file from original negative)Repository: Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division Washington, D.C. 20540 USA http://hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/pp.print -- source link
