Highlights from this collection include:

  • Dwight D. Eisenhower Becomes President Of The United States
  • Russian Dictator Joseph Stalin Passes Away
  • U.S. Tests Its First Atomic Cannon
  • Queen Elizabeth Is Crowned With Traditional Pomp And Ceremony
  • Truce Signed In Korea, P.O.W.'s Returned From Red Captivity
