Press kit and working program for the JFK Welcome Dinner slated for the evening of 22 November 1963 in Austin, Texas. The working program itemizes the event's planned moments in minute by minute detail, including music cues, speech introductions, entrances and exits. It even takes pains to allow for variation in the schedule: ''...If it is now 8:45 or later, there will be no musical interlude...'' Each typed press release in the kit supplies the media with news pertaining to Kennedy's visit and promotes the sale of tickets to the dinner. One release serves as a who's-who of the guest list, and others cover such specifics as the menu and dress code. The President's motorcade line-up is listed as well. A total of 16 original sheets are housed within a white pocket folder printed starkly in black, ''Texas Welcome Dinner / Press Kit'', with an E. Pluribus Unum seal printed at the top. 4pp. working program is stapled and measures 8.5'' x 11''. Toning to first page, else near fine. Press releases all measure either 8.5'' x 11'' or 8.5'' x 14''. Creasing to lower right of two of the sheets, otherwise near fine. Folder measures 9'' x 14''. Scattered bits of light toning or staining, with rust to staples on the pockets. Very good to near fine.
