John F. Kennedy owned and worn silk neck tie

• A silk neck tie owned and worn by U.S President John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963) was the 35th President of the United States of America from 1961 until 1963 when he was tragically assassinated in Dallas, Texas.

A charismatic leader, he is one of the most beloved presidents in US history, and his memorabilia is among the best selling of any former president.

A John F. Kennedy personally owned and worn silk neck tie, made by A. Sulka and Company, which features a red dot pattern on a navy blue and silver background.

The tie was obtained by Robert Morey who first met Kennedy while he was a freshman congressman.

He formed a close relationship with Kennedy which lasted throughout his election as President. Urged by Kennedy to move to Washington, Morey declined and took a position as a US Marshall in Massachusetts.

Morey acquired the tie during the hectic travels through Massachusetts in the late 1950's, with speeches and campaign stops throughout the region.

In very good condition.

A fantastic piece of memorabilia from the former President's personal wardrobe.

Provenance: ex Stanley Gibbons.
