In late December 1939, when he was 21 and in his last year at Princeton, Pell spent a few days in the nation's capital touring and studying. "I really liked Washington a lot and the people also," he wrote to his father, who was in Lisbon. Pictured here: both sides of a postcard of the Library of Congress he also sent Herbert. "Have had an interesting A.M. studying here, Love," he wrote.
