Scarce color glossy 11.5 x 8.25 photo of the Johnson family posing on the White House lawn, showing Luci Johnson and husband Pat Nugent, the president and first lady with new grandson Patrick, and Lynda Johnson and her husband Chuck Robb, affixed to the original 15 x 12 mount, signed and inscribed on the mount in black ink or felt tip, "For Mary Lasker—Merry Christmas from some of her loving friends! Lady Bird, December 1967," "Lyndon B. Johnson," "Luci and," "Pat Nugent," "Lynda and," and "Chuck Robb," with the Nugents adding the fingerprint of their infant son, Patrick Lyndon. In fine condition, with some small edge dings and a short tear to the top edge, all easily matted out. Lasker was an American health activist and philanthropist, who worked to raise funds for medical research and founded the Lasker Foundation. She helped convince Eleanor Roosevelt to endorse Lyndon Johnson's efforts to become the 1960 Democratic nominee, and Lady Bird glowingly mentions Lasker in her book A White House Diary. Lasker was the recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1969.
