Rare Parker 45 fountain pen 'bill signer' pen from the end of the Kennedy administration, measuring 6.5″ long, with "The President, The White House" engraved in white on the black body. Includes the original box and typed care instructions slip. In fine condition. These pens were ordered by the Kennedy White House in 1963, just shortly before Kennedy's death; they are far scarcer than the Esterbrook dipping pens commonly used by JFK during bill signings. This example is not attributed to any specific act, and may not have been used. Provenance: from the estate of General Chester V. Clifton, military aide to JFK.
