- RR Auction's November Fine Autographs and Artifacts auction offers an extraordinary and wide-ranging selection of the rare and remarkable. In light of the 60th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's death, a special section focuses on his presidency and assassination—with an insightful and historic diary from the summer of 1945, letters to the family of a PT-109 sailor lost at sea, remarkable signed photographs from several eras, an original window from the Texas School Book Depository, and Lee Harvey Oswald's first gun. Among the other highlights are: a complete set of 'American Statesman' books with rare tipped-in autographs of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and dozens more; important letters by Martin Luther King, Jr., Albert Einstein, and Charles Darwin; and significant signed portraits of Winston Churchill, Pablo Picasso, and Edouard Manet.
This is a timed auction.
