Jackie Kennedy Autograph Sold

At Nate D. Sanders Auctions we sold the following Jackie Kennedy autograph for $2,039. Here is the description:

Jackie Kennedy Autograph Letter Signed as First Lady — “…acquiring art…will augment the feeling everyone has when they come here — a feeling of pride in the nation’s most beloved house…”

Jacqueline Kennedy draft letter signed “Affectionately Jackie” as First Lady, dated 11 May 1962, on White House letterhead. Addressed to Betty Beal, syndicated society columnist for the Washington Star, Jackie writes of redecorating the White House and acquiring classic American art and antiques for it: “…All these pictures are very expensive – all have a reason for being in the W. House – They are of great Americans or historical figures of interest…many paintings of great American artists would be totally unsuitable in the dignified State Rooms where the President has his State Receptions. So the pictures we acquire should all have a certain reason & appropriateness for being in the White House. They can be of people or events that are a part of our history – of significant American landscapes or historic houses. But they still can and must be great pictures – or we will defeat our own purpose – of acquiring art for the W. House which will augment the feeling everyone has when they come here – a feeling of pride in the nation’s most beloved house – & a feeling of pride in our country’s history.” Letter on two pages, measuring 5″ x 8″, has typed text on front and copious handwritten text by Jackie on both front and verso. Very good condition. Sold for $2,039.
