President John F. Kennedy Prayer Cards and Funeral Missal Booklet (3 Items)

Offered are the artifacts from the nation's mourning after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Included is a official large prayer card--these larger cards, measuring 3 /1 x 4 3/4 inches, are the ones found in official archives such as that of Kennedy Secretary Evelyn Lincoln. The front has a simple portrait of the President, and the reverse features three paragraphs selected from the Presidents 1961 Inaugural Address. The smaller prayer card, more widely distributed, measures 2 1/2 x 4 inches and uses a more formal portrait of the President and features a prayer on the back. The Leaflet Missal booklet, entitled The Mass on the Day of Burial for John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was printed in St. Paul, Minnesota, and includes the entire funeral mass and instructions. It measures 3 1/2 x 5 inches. All three items present in stunning Near Mint to Mint condition.
