Kennedy, John F. (1917-1963) - Signed photograph AS PRESIDENT 35.
Excellent matte-finish signed photograph βFor Jerry Lewis- Much warm regards β. Portrait photo of Massachusetts Senator John F. Kennedy taken after being nominated as the Democratic presidential candidate in August of 1960, signed and inscribed in the lower border in dark fountain pen. Inscribed to comedian and personal friend Jerry Lewis.
Political views
Lewis kept a low political profile for many years, having taken advice reportedly given to him by President John F. Kennedy, who told him, "Don't get into anything political. Don't do that because they will usurp your energy." Nevertheless, he campaigned and performed on behalf of both JFK and Robert F. Kennedy, and was a supporter of the civil rights movement. For his 1957 NBC special, Lewis held his ground when southern affiliates objected to his friendship with Sammy Davis, Jr.Β [citation needed] In a 1971 Movie Mirror magazine article, Lewis spoke out against the Vietnam War. He vowed to leave the country rather than send another of his sons.Β [citation needed]
Minor handling wear, else fine condition. Although taken in the summer of 1960 by Alfred Eisenstaedt, this was the preferred portrait JFK would sign and give out during the beginning of his administration. Excellent provenance and fine connection to a member of the Kennedy administration and one of the finest signed JFK photos you can hope to find.
The purchase price, not including shipping, will be refunded upon a copy provided to me from PSA, Beckett, or JSA stating this is not authentic.
A copy of the letter of provenance will be provided as well.
This would be the only reason a return would be allowed up to 30 days after receiving your purchase.
Kindest regards,
Sean G.
