Item Description
1.5x7.5". Light diagonal creasing, otherwise only minor handling wear. Retains bold color. Extremely Fine. While we are unsure of when this ribbon was distributed we note that Kennedy traveled to Houston while campaigning in 1960 and during his presidency- on Sept. 12, 1960 as a candidate in the Democratic Primary, he addressed his Catholicism in a famed speech to The Greater Houston Ministerial Association; on Sept. 12, 1962 he toured NASA facilities, and on Nov 21, 1963 the day before his assassination.
