Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Franklin Delano Roosevelt

Original - Head-and-shoulders portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt in December 1933.

Reason: High EV, seems remarkably high quality considering its age (1933). I can't imagine a better image of FDR exists. I should probably mention this is my first FPC, so please tell me if I do anything wrong.

- Reluctant, Very Weak Oppose Durova's right. I didn't notice the artifacting first time. How disappointing. ~ ωαdεstεr16_«talk^stalk» 04:04, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support Although it looks like it could benefit from dust and scratch removal, the facial detail is quite good for the time.--HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 01:13, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
