This my dad (top of stairs) and his best friend, the late Steve Thibault, in August 1974, the day Nixon resigned. They hung the American Flag outside on the fire escape of their apartment in Olneyville to celebrate the day.
A passing news photographer snapped this photo, and it ran in the Providence Journal Bulletin as part of the local reaction to Nixon's resignation.
I love the political timeliness of this image. It's always been a favorite photograph of mine. This is among the reasons why I love my dad :)
