A rocking chair from the Kennedy Hyannisport estate. Black-painted wooden rocking chair measures approximately 3´ high and 24.5? wide, with Bentwood armrests and cattail back slats. The headrest bears a gold-painted eagle and two stars. Accompanied by a copy of an August 25, 1996, letter of provenance from Mindy Uhlman, great granddaughter of the chair’s recipient. Letter reads, in full: “This rocking chair (black) was given to Stephan [sic] Clarke who is my great grandfather. He worked for John F. Kennedy at the Hyannisport mansion for 22 years as a groundsman/caretaker. While president Kennedy was alive and in office he gave thus rocking chair to my great grandfather as a gift of appreciation. Stephen Clarke died in 1985 and the chair was passed on to my mother Sandra Uhlman who then passed it on to me, Mindie Uhlman. Obtained August 1, 1995. In very good condition, with a repaired split to plank seat, some other small repairs, and scattered wear and chipping to paint showing an earlier paint finish underneath.
