Scope and content
President Jimmy Carter is pictured at the microphone on September 23, 1980, with Tacoma Mayor Mike Parker in the background. The President was in town for a few hours to rally the Democratic faithful in his re-election bid. He had made stops at a senior citizen center, met the blue-collar workers at a grain terminal, shook many hands at his local campaign center and worked the crowd at a fundraiser held at the Bicentennial Pavilion.
