Outtakes from Edward R. Murrow's interview of former president Harry S. Truman at the Olney Inn in Islamorada, Florida, between February 8-15, 1957; filmed by Charles Mack and Martin Barnett. This reel shows Truman and Murrow outdoors, starting their conversation on a dock and walking toward the building, doing multiple takes. Subject matter on this reel includes: the popularity of the Florida Keys as a vacation spot; how the President chose to vacation at Key West while president; and how the Trumans felt very emotional with the warm good-bye given them by the public at the train station when they left Washington in 1953.
This series of interviews between Murrow and Truman constitute the raw material that was edited into the CBS program "From Precinct to President: Some Reflections by Harry S. Truman" which aired on February 2, 1958 and was rebroadcast during CBS funeral coverage when Mr. Truman passed away in December, 1972. They are for viewing and research purposes only.
