Exceptionally rare ''reading copy'' of President John F. Kennedy's speech delivered in Houston the night of 21 November 1963. This would be, of course, JFK's last major speech. Seventeen page document is in large type for easy reading by the President or his top aides; this copy was given to Dave Powers, Special Assistant to President Kennedy and also his close friend. Pages measure 8'' x 10.5'' on thin rice paper. All pages are in very good condition with light creasing and stapling. Marked ''Mr. Powers'' in pencil to top right corner.
