Norman Rockwell The Peace Corps (J.F.K.'s Bold Legacy), story illustration for Look, June 14, 1966.

Standard size postcard measures 4" inches by 6" printed on heavy weight card stock.

Rockwell repeated the simple and powerful style used in Freedom of Worship to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the Corps. During his 1960 presidential campaign, John F. Kennedy proposed the idea of a volunteer organization of trained people who would be sent to developing nations in Africa and Asia to assist villagers in educational and agricultural projects. In 1961, the program, which Kennedy hoped would promote understanding between nations, was officially instated. © Norman Rockwell Family Agency
