Upstairs at the White House

Going back thru JB West's memoir, I decided to add some of the photos found in there. Several of them I haven't seen from any other source and depicted rooms at times that I don't have covered otherwise. They aren't very good quality images—screened and printed in low quality. Does anybody have the hard back version and are those photos reproduced at higher quality?

UPDATE: The hardback does have better quality photos, and I found a copy for less than $5, including shipping.

Which photos are you talking about? I have a hardback version of the JB West book.

I especially like the ones from the Roosevelt era with pictures all over the walls. Very homey-looking.

Poor Mr. West looks like he just *knows* that Jackie Kennedy is upstairs at that very moment generating ever more work for him, from the pages of her yellow legal pads!
