Description

Jackie talks of style and silverware at the start of the 1960 campaign

ALS signed “Jackie,” one page both sides, 6.5 x 8.5, personal letterhead, no date but postmarked February 8, 1960. Letter to Barbara Scannell, Joseph P. Kennedy’s secretary. In part: “Could you find out where the Kennedys got their bamboo knives & forks etc that they use everyday, (at the Mart). And could you order for me 6 place settings—knife, fork, spoon, soup spoon, butter knife & have them sent & billed to me here…P. S. Will you make sure the Bueb painting at Chatsworth which Mrs. K had sent from our house at the Cape to Palm Beach, is brought back to us when Dave drives up next spring!!! Thanks for your sweet letter about the blouse—you deserve a carload of them.” In fine condition, with a trivial fingerprint to the upper border. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, filled out in Kennedy’s hand. Franz Bueb was an artist who painted a number of portraits of Jacqueline Kennedy, as well as some landscapes of Chatsworth. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
