These historic official Kennedy White House Christmas gifts are discussed in detail in Mary Evans Seeley’s Season’s Greetings from the White House (pp. 87-95). Per Seeley, 'Hallmark art director Jeannette Lee sent a telegram to Pamela Turner, Jackie Kennedy’s press secretary…advising that [only] 2000 Green Room folders…had left [Hallmark’s headquarters in Kansas City] on November 22, the day of the assassination and would arrive at Washington’s Friendship Airport at 1:38 that afternoon.' Seeley further reports that 'Mrs. Kennedy gave [this gift print] to the White House staff for Christmas after the President’s death.'
