EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1938, where two young boys stand side by side with beaming smiles on their faces. On the left is a youthful Robert Kennedy, while his brother Edward stands tall beside him. These two charming boys happen to be the sons of Joseph Kennedy, the esteemed American Ambassador to Britain at that time. The occasion captured in this image is truly special - it marks the opening of London Zoo's children's zoo on June 2nd. As they cut through the ribbon and stepped into this enchanting world designed just for them, these privileged youngsters were greeted by none other than Mr Julian Huxley, Secretary of London Zoo himself. As a token of appreciation for their presence at such an important event, Mr Huxley presented each boy with toy animals. The excitement radiating from Robert and Edward is palpable as they hold onto their newfound treasures tightly. This snapshot not only showcases a heartwarming moment between brothers but also offers us a glimpse into their early exposure to politics and diplomacy due to their father's prestigious position. Little did anyone know then that these innocent faces would grow up to become influential figures themselves in American politics - Robert as Attorney General and Edward as one of America's most beloved senators. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of youthfulness amidst political legacies and captures an endearing chapter in the lives of Young Robert and Edward Kennedy.
