Description

Exceedingly rare invitation to JFK's "Third Inaugural Salute," canceled due to tragedy

Rare original invitation to the Democratic Anniversary Committee's "Third Inaugural Salute honoring The President and Mrs. Kennedy, and The Vice President and Mrs. Johnson," one page, 7 x 5, to be held at the National Guard Armory in Washington on January 23, 1964. In fine condition, with a small crease to the upper left corner. These invitations had been sent out in November 1963; the event, of course, did not take place due to Kennedy's assassination. Only a handful of these invitations are known to exist in the public.
