The photo was taken by Times staff photographer George Tames (1919 - 1994), whose work for nearly half a century changed the way Americans looked at presidents and political power. Tames's photographs chronicled 10 Presidents, from Franklin D. Roosevelt to George Bush.

President Eisenhower selected two Tames photographs for official portraits, and a third became the basis of a 6-cent Eisenhower stamp. We're not sure of Ike's reaction to seeing himself with funny glasses.
