A swatch of leather from the light and dark blue leather interior of the Lincoln Continental limousine that President John F. Kennedy was riding in when assassinated on 22 November 1963. A letter, a copy of which accompanies the lot, from F. Vaughn Ferguson details the history of the leather after the events: "Four days after the Assassination the White House upholsterer and I removed this leather at the White House. The light blue leather is from the center of the rear seat. The dark blue leather is from the border of the rear seat. The spots on the latter are the dried blood of our beloved President, John F. Kennedy. Following the Assassination the Presidential Limousine was completely refurbished."
