Description: Images of a jubilant Fidel Castro standing at the door of his car in front of the Statler Hilton, apparently upon arrival in New York City City, where he was greeted by an onslaught of supporters, many, if not most of them, Cuban exiles who had supported the Revolution financially from abroad since Fidel's visit there to gather funds in 1955. These images were taken in the second-to-last-leg of Fidel's four-week tour of the eastern United States which would end with a stop in Boston. See also Prints 30, 31 and 32.
