Life Magazine and Saturday Evening Post by [John F Kennedy] - 1963

Curtis Publishing Company, 1963. Memorial Editions. Semigloss magazine paper covers. Near fine. Both magazines are 10.5" x 13.5". POST, pp. 1-82 with a replica of a Norman Rockwell painting of JFK on a black bordered cover. 236th year, Issue No. 44, filled with photographs and articles of the assassinate President, LBJ - the next president, and events surrounding this transformative event in American history. Light bumping on the corners, else fine. LIFE; 76 unnumbered pp., black borders on text front and back. Insignificant bumping at the corners. In Life's traditional context, filled with photographs of the widely popular president, the events surrounding his assassination and funeral and what is next for the new president and the country. No mailing labels on either. "It is all over now. The frightful moment has passed and what unfolded before the eyes of a nation has begun - such is nature's mercy - to recede." (p 1).
