1975 Press Photo US Rep Ella T Grasso Connecticut

Caption: The candidate--US Rep. Ella T. Grasso in one of three Democrats seeking that party's gubernatorial nomination. Her campaign style is a handshake rather than a stump speech. And that's why few people outside Connecticut know that the state might elect a woman governor this fall. The only women governors in the US have been wives or widows of previous governors.

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below.
