Secretary Albright’s important jewelry collection has been well documented, most notably her extensive assemblage of pins. After 9 years as a traveling exhibition, Secretary Albright's collection of brooches was exhibited from October 2017 to January 2018 at the LBJ Presidential Library, who summarized the importance of her pins: “Shortly after becoming a diplomat, Madeleine Albright discovered the power of jewelry to convey a foreign policy message. Before long, she began selecting appropriate pins and brooches to wear to particular meetings, visually expressing her high hopes, determination, impatience, or warm feelings,” (Read My Pins).
In original binding (condition generally very good).
Provenance: Secretary Madeleine K. Albright (inscription, bookplate).
