Details:
John F. Kennedy vintage 8 x 11” black-and-white wire service photograph capturing the iconic moment during the President’s state funeral on November 25, 1963, as John F. Kennedy Jr. (“John-John”) renders a salute to his father’s passing caisson outside St. Matthew’s Cathedral in Washington, D.C. Jacqueline Kennedy, veiled in mourning, stands beside him along with Caroline Kennedy, while Robert F. Kennedy and other family members are visible behind—one of the most enduring and widely recognized images of national mourning.
The lower margin retains its original wire service caption, reading in part: “A SON’S FINAL SALUTE—In a memorable scene, little John F. Kennedy Jr. saluted casket of President Kennedy…” along with AP Wirephoto credit and distribution markings. The image exhibits typical editorial border elements from newsroom handling and transmission.
The verso is blank aside from light handling wear and a handwritten pencil notation reading “John F. Kennedy funeral.”
Fine condition with light age-related wear, including toning and edge wear.
