Color semi-glossy 7.5 x 9.5 photo of Johnson in the White House, affixed to a 12 x 15 mount, signed and inscribed on the mount in black ink, as president, “To Toi Bachelder, who knows the White House better than any of us, with appreciation of her friend—Lyndon B. Johnson.” Bachelder joined the White House staff following the inauguration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933 and continued working there for Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson before retiring in 1967. President Johnson was so impressed with her service, particularly as a member of FDR’s inner circle, that he gave a private retirement party for her in the White House. Framed to an overall size of 13.5 x 16.5. In fine condition, with a few light creases and ripples to edges of photo (due to adhesive on reverse), and a vertical separation to top edge of mount.
