George Wallace at University of Alabama[edit]

George Wallace in the famous "stand in the schoolhouse door", attempting to block the desegregation of the University of Alabama

There's obvious historic value here. Is this a photo famous unto itself, so it shouldn't be touched? I did a perspective correction and then cropped it. Thoughts on this?

  • Nice picture. It's focused and is pretty good quality. In several articles. I think it might have a chance at WP:FPC. When you nominate, make sure to emphasize how famous the photo is and the importance it has in the articles it illustrates. Good choice. :) Intothewoods29 (talk) 03:59, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
