(n.p.), (n.p.), ca. 1961-1963. A portrait of a smiling Kennedy, presumably taken during his years as President. Inscribed by Kennedy: "To Bill/ with very best wishes/ John Kennedy." From the estate of Doris Dana, the partner and translator of Chilean poet Gabriela Mistral, the first Latin American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. We were presented with the possibility that the inscription was to William Carter, Chief of the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress, but any connection he may have had to Kennedy, decades earlier, is lost to us. 8" x 10". Two pinholes to top margin, marginal tear to top edge; half-inch tear on right side; light creasing and minor edge wear; very good. [#036417] $3,500
