View of a large outdoor crowd gathering at a campaign rally for former U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy in support of his 1964 bid for the U.S. Senate seat for New York State. In the foreground, people wearing coordinated outfit s and hats labeled "USA" cheer and wave pom-poms. Many individuals in the crowd hold signs featuring a portrait and the text "LET'S PUT BOB KENNEDY TO WORK FOR NEW YORK." Several people in suits are visible at a table in front of the crowd.
