Amazing collection of ephemera and memorabilia relating to JFK. Originally collected by a young fifteen year old Barbara Bright, who worked on Kennedy's election campaign in San Diego, California in 1960.


The stand-out piece of the collection is a large leather embossed scrapbook measuring 16.5 x 12.5 inches, which Barbara has filled with magazine and newspaper cuttings as well as her own original (and unpublished) photos from the campaign trail, some featuring JFK himself in San Diego.


Included is a signed photo of JFK measuring 7.1 x 5.1 inches. I tracked down Barbara shortly after I bought this item in 2016 and she said she never knew whether this was a genuine signature or not as she had received it in the post as a 'thank you' for her help on the campaign.


I have worked on the basis over the years that it's an autopen and this was confirmed recently.


Also included are an original photo of Bobby Kennedy and a covering letter from the Justice Department where he served as Attorney General for his brother,  as well as a signed photo of Secretary of Agriculture Dillon and a family photo of Commerce Secretary, Orville Freeman. California Governor, Edmund G. Brown, has also written and signed a letter to young Barbara.


We also have Barbara's original Kennedy Club sash which she wore with pride and has original campaign badges attached, as well as her accreditation which also has an original Democrat toy donkey attached to it as a souvenir. There is an unused sheet of Kennedy campaign stamps (90 in total) which sell for around $2-3 per stamp online.


In addition, we have 2 vinyl tribute albums of Kennedy's greatest speeches (released after his assassination), newspapers, magazines, campaign literature, campaign car stickers, Kennedy cardboard stands and posters for shops, an 'In Memoriam' sheet mounted to card.


This is a fantastic set of Kennedy memorabilia with 100% provenance. Shipping in the UK is £35 and US £60 extra. If anywhere else in the world, please check for shipping cost before agreeing to purchase.
