| Caption | Vice President Calvin Coolidge was known mostly for quiet demeanor while he served as a representative, senator, governor, and vice-president. Coolidge maintained his reputation as a man of few words, but his ability to build relationships in the Republican party and manage the scandals remaining from the Harding administration allowed him to win the 1924 presidential election.
In this photograph, Coolidge is on the left, being greeted by Seattle's flamboyant two-term mayor, Edwin J. 'Doc' Brown, on the right. |
