John F Kennedy Inaugural Address Book



Submitted by Sandra:
I found an interesting book in my late mothers belongings. It is a hardcover book with Kennedy's inaugural address. The book is white, on the spine embossed in gold is "INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF JOHN F. KENNEDY JANUARY 20, 1961". On the cover embossed in gold is the Presidential seal. Inside is simply the text of the speech. The book is in a hardcover sleeve that is also white and has the Presidential Seal embossed in gold on the front. It measures 7"x10". There are no other markings that would indicate a publisher or copyright.

I have attached some pictures of it.

Any info you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Kennedy Pope John XXIII Memorabilia


Submitted by Chris:
Just going through some old boxes and have found a commemorative ceramic tile for John Kennedy’s meeting with the Pope John XXlll. I think this meeting did not take place as John XXlll died on June 2nd 1963. The President did go on to meet Paul Xl early in July of the same year. The tile measures 150mm x 75mm and is in reasonable condition, it has never been mounted. It has a small chip on the top left corner and some sort of paint on the right edge which I am sure could be removed.

If you can help Chris with information on the value of this item please click on the comment button. Thanks!
