“Triumph And Tragedy, Story Of The Kennedys”
Dave Powers’ Signed Personal Copy
(JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY) DAVID FRANCIS POWERS (1912-1998). Special Assistant and assistant Appointments Secretary to President of the United States John F. Kennedy. “Triumph And Tragedy, The Story Of The Kennedys” Dave Powers’ Signed Personal Copy With Inscription!
"Triumph and Tragedy, The Story of the Kennedys" by The Associated Press. Published by "Western Publishing Company, New York", 1968. Blue cloth, gilt letters, with illustrations (some colored), 256 pp., 10.5 x 7", Near Mint. This copy was presented, INSCRIBED, by Dave Powers to his long-time secretary, Charlotte Wooding, who sold it to Maury A. Bromsen when she left to work in Chicago. With Mr. Power's small bookplate on inside cover. This volume contains, perhaps, the finest collection of Kennedy Family Illustrations and portraits yet published. There is a very detailed and useful "Index" printed in three columns, also includes a "Bilbliography". The printing was a very small one, OCLC reports that only 36 libraries have copies (there was another edition printed in New York by Morrow with the same pagination, also in 1968, with a larger numbers reporting copies, according to OCLC).
NOTE: This comes from the famed Boston dealer and Kennedy expert Maury Bromson's personal holding. His price sheet details it as being offered (15+ years ago!) for $350. BIDS start at a FRACTION of that amount!!!
Edles worn, cover-boards slightly rubbed, strong bound, overall fantastic condition.
David Francis Powers was Special Assistant and assistant Appointments Secretary to President of the United States John F. Kennedy. Powers served as Museum Curator of the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum from 1964 until his retirement in May 1994.
