As an election year, 2012 was especially unforgettable for reelected President Barack Obama.

And how the vintage image has this mysterious time-warp quality that we cannot shake off or stop being fascinated by — an addiction merciless tapped into and catered to by several online platforms, numerous photo books, collections, some galleries, eBay sellers and auctioneers.
