Lot Description
KENNEDY, John F. (1917-1963). Profiles in Courage. New York: Harper & Brothers, 1956.
8vo. Original quarter cloth (corners bumped, extremities rubbed); in later dust jacket; slipcase. Provenance: Walter E. Noyes, Woburn, MA (ownership notation on front pastedown and presentation inscription).
Later printing. PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed in a secretarial hand on front free endpaper: “To Walter Noyes / with very best wishes / John Kennedy.” The book is a later printing (Harper code H-F, corresponding to August 1956); the dust jacket appears to be later, unclipped, but without a price.
Property from the Patrick Atkinson Collection, Minneapolis, Minnesota
