John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy original double-weight silver gelatin photograph depicting the President and First Lady greeting Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson at a formal reception in Fort Worth, Texas, during Kennedy’s final Texas trip in November 1963. The image captures a relaxed, candid moment between the Kennedys and Johnson inside a ceremonial setting, taken just hours before the President’s assassination in Dallas. Printed on double-weight semi-gloss photographic paper, the image exhibits strong tonal contrast and period clarity consistent with professional press photography of the era. The photograph was taken by noted photojournalist Gene Gordon and measures approximately 14 x 11 inches.

Light handling wear present, including a few minor surface dings and a faint crease to the upper right corner.
