PRESIDENTIAL SIGNED BOOKS
1JFK)Here is an
incredible collection of hand signed and annotated presidential memorabilia
given by President Kennedy to his dear friend, bother in law, and fellow bon
vivant Peter Lawford. Peter Lawford was married to President Kennedy's sister
Patricia. They married on April 24, 1954 in New York City. Lawford then became a
member of the extended Kennedy Family. Lawford and JFK became best friends early
on. Lawford offered JFK an entree into the powerful Hollywood world of the
beautiful people. JFK loved the heady life of that world, and the perks that
came with it. He also garnered considerable financial and political support from
the Hollywood crowd. JFK offered Lawford a seat at the table of the arguably
most powerful man in the world. The relationship was a good one. Lawford
campaigned constantly during all of JFK's political campaigns, doing all he
could do to sway the Hollywood crowd into backing Kennedy. JFK, Lawford,
Jacqueline Kennedy and Patricia Lawford were best friends, and constant
companions. Jacqueline Kennedy remained very close to Lawford even after the
assassination of JFK and subsequent divorce of Lawford and Patricia in 1966.
Included in this collection are many remarkable writings and comments from JFK
to Lawford. Many of them are on books from JFK's private library. Many more are
on books that JFK personally wrote. There are wonderful signed photos and pieces
of inaugural memorabilia. Many of the comments give an extremely interesting
insight into the real JFK, and his opinions of the men who helped shape his
political manifestoes.
