Handsome matte-finish 7.5 x 9.25 photo of Kennedy taken after being nominated as the Democratic presidential candidate in August of 1960, affixed to the original 8 x 11.75 mount, signed and inscribed on the mount in fountain pen, most likely as president, “To David Spurgen—with best regards, John F. Kennedy.” Double-matted to an overall size of 14 x 17. In fine condition, with a couple of trivial creases to background. Although taken in the summer of 1960 by Alfred Eisenstaedt, this was the preferred portrait Kennedy would sign and give out during the beginning of his administration.
