Program from the 1960 Tribute Dinner in honor of Eleanor Roosevelt, 9 x 12, two pages. Signed and inscribed on the cover in blue ballpoint, “To Ann, Best wishes, John F. Kennedy,” and also signed on the cover by Eleanor Roosevelt, Adlai Stevenson (ins), Hubert H. Humphrey (ins), mayor of New York Robert Wagner, New Jersey governor Robert Meyer, US Senator Stuart Symington, and US Senator Sherman Williams. Cover also bears a printed signature of Roosevelt along bottom border. In very good condition, with central horizontal and vertical fold, a couple signatures a shade or two light, some staining above Kennedy’s signature, and scattered mild toning. An impressive gathering of Democratic hopefuls, perhaps most importantly Kennedy, as Eleanor Roosevelt and the former president were conducting an avid campaign against Kennedy’s nomination, an act that carried strong undertones of religious rivalry, the former being of the late 19th century Protestant persuasion, and the latter, carrying with him a Catholic background. After Kennedy was elected, The Roosevelt’s supported him in the name of supporting the Democratic Party.
