Eisenhower and Vice President Richard Nixon laughing during the public inauguration ceremony held on the east portico of the White House, Jan. 21, 1957. Both men are holding golf balls and it appears that they are tossing them into the audience. Because January 20, 1957, the date set by the Constitution as the official inaugural date, fell on Sunday, Jan. 20, Eisenhower and Nixon had a private swearing-in ceremony at the White House. They repeated the oaths-of-office the next day in public. Shown from left to right are Pres. Eisenhower's son, Brig. Gen. John S. D. Eisenhower, his wife, Barbara Jean Thompson Eisenhower, Mamie Eisenhower, Pres. Eisenhower, VP Richard Nixon. Photo 8.5 x 14 in., stamped "PHOTO BY/ A.B. RICKERBY" on back.

Unmarked, attributed to Arthur Rickerby. 13.5 x 10.25 in., trimmed, very good condition. ++ 2 gelatin silver b/w photographs of the 1957 Eisenhower Inaugural Parade show Eisenhower standing in motorcade car with the Capitol Building in the background. Both stamped on back "PHOTO BY/ A.B. RICKERBY", one stamp barely visible, both trimmed. Larger 12 1/2 x 8 3/4 in., smaller 14 x 7 ½ in.

Douglas MacArthur, possibly giving a "thumbs-down" to the audience, standing with a US Army Major General. 11 x 14 in., stamped on back "PHOTO BY/ A.B.
