From the 3 day auction of Robert L. White's John F Kennedy collection. The sale was run by Guernsey's and held at the 7th Regiment Armory in New York.

Mr. White was a teen-ager when he began collecting items related to the 35th president during the 1960s - writing to him to request an autograph. He continued collecting after the 1963 assassination, and eventually was helped by some Kennedy relatives and former Cabinet members.

He died at age 54 in 2003.
