Catalogue Note

"Here I was in Egypt and all of a sudden it was New Jersey. Frank - Thanks. Ronald Reagan." Sinatra raised millions for Reagan's 1980 campaign, and made many appearances on the candidate's behalf. Once Reagan was elected, Sinatra was more a celebrity fixture of the White House than he had been during any presidency since Kennedy.
