Description: For sale is a famous TYPE 1 Original Photo of President John F Kennedy JFK. In this outstanding image JFK is at the Vatican meeting Pope Paul VI for the first time. There was a lot of controversy behind this meeting. When Kennedy and Pope Paul VI arose from their chairs, as a devout Catholic, Kennedy was expected to kneel before the pope and kiss the papal ring on his right hand.Kennedy, however, did not do so, mystifying pundits and commentators.Many believe that Kennedy the United States' first Catholic President- was trying to demonstrate that he could operate as President without being subservient to the Vatican, as some people feared at the time. JFK was aware of the importance of the gesture and reportedly remarked to an aide that his decision to simply shake the Pope's hand would get him "a lot of votes in South Carolina", where he encountered significant opposition due to his religion. This photo has been Authenticated and Encapsulated by PSA DNA as a TYPE 1 ORIGINAL PHOTO. This photo is dated July 2nd 1963 and is Credited to "Gilloon Photo Agency". The size is 7 x 9.5 inches and is in MINT Condition. This is by far one of my favorite JFK photos that I've ever handled.
