Details:

John F. Kennedy autographed 8 x 10” black-and-white glossy photograph depicting the President seated in his office before a wall of bound volumes, a classic and composed portrait that captures Kennedy at the height of his public life. The photograph is inscribed in black ink, “To Carla Otter with warmest regards, from her friend, John Kennedy. U.S.S. Mass.”

Fine condition with only the most trivial light surface dings and minor handling wear.

The photograph bears the original photographer’s backstamp crediting Jacques Lowe, Kennedy’s longtime friend and official photographer, whose images defined much of the enduring visual legacy of the Kennedy presidency. Lowe was granted unparalleled access to Kennedy from his Senate years through the White House, producing some of the most intimate and iconic portraits of the era.

This image stands out for its clarity, tonal richness, and pristine presentation, with no distracting flaws. Combining a high-quality Lowe portrait with a warm, personalized inscription from John F. Kennedy, this photograph represents a premier example of a signed JFK image—ideally suited for an advanced presidential, Americana, or fine autograph collection.
