John F. Kennedy original 10 x 8” black-and-white Associated Press press photograph depicting a somber Christmas memorial scene following Kennedy’s assassination. The image shows a Nativity display set amid snow with a prominently placed sign reading: “We request all who visit here to spend one minute of silent meditation in memory of our late President John F. Kennedy.” The photograph bears the original AP caption along the margin, dated December 1963, describing the subdued holiday mood in the aftermath of Kennedy’s death.

Near fine condition.

Taken during the first Christmas season following the assassination, this photograph reflects the profound national mourning that continued weeks after November 22, 1963. Holiday imagery tied to Kennedy’s death carries particular emotional weight, capturing how deeply the loss permeated everyday American life, even in moments traditionally associated with celebration.
