Description

Vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 photo of Kennedy in a tuxedo, signed and inscribed in the lower border in black felt tip, "To Orin Lehman, With appreciation, Bob Kennedy, Nov. 1964.” In fine condition, with some brushing to the handwriting, and light soiling to the lower left corner. The great-grandson of Mayer Lehman, a founder of the Lehman Brothers investment house, Orin Lehman dedicated his life to public work, serving on the advisory board of the President Truman's Economic Cooperation Administration, as a delegate to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, and as New York State's commissioner of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. The year after he received this signed photo from RFK, Lehman participated in the Montgomery Freedom March—a cause close to Kennedy's heart.
