Fred Lynch retired in 2018 after capturing images for the Southeast Missourian since 1975, in that time moving from black-and-white to color, from film to digital and to video. The blog title is a nod to an earlier era of news photography and the 4x5 Speed Graphic: It's more important to be there for the shot than to worry about technical details.

July 22, 1938 Southeast Missourian

After spending the night in Cape Girardeau, Gov. Lloyd C. Stark left early this morning to return to Jefferson City after speaking Thursday night at a political rally in Sikeston. He was met here late Thursday afternoon by a party composed of Sen. R.L. Dearmont, Ray B. Lucas of Benton, H.G. Simpson of Charleston and Rep. L.D. Joslyn of Charleston and escorted to Sikeston for the speech. In good health the governor shows little the effects of the vigorous campaign he has been waging in behalf of Judge James M. Douglas for Supreme Court. (G.D. Fronabarger photo)
