Kennedy Family: John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, and Edward Kennedy Commemorative Parker Pen Set (4) Four Parker Jotter ballpoint click pens with sterling silver filigree bodies, each engraved to commemorate the political ambitions of the Kennedy family: "Senator John F. Kennedy," "Senator Robert F. Kennedy," "Senator Edward M. Kennedy," and "John F. Kennedy." Each is marked "Sterling" and "Parker" on the barrel. Housed together in a case marked "Silvercraft, Sterling Silver," with a black-and-silver label on the cover and "Frank Allen" address sticker inside. In overall fine condition. Accompanied by a TLS from Frank Allen to Kennedy cousin Ann Gargan, in full: "It gives me great personal pleasure to enclose this sterling silver four-pen set inscribed with the Kennedy name. I designed and produced only fifty, which will be distributed among the family and close friends of the late President. I created these during the period when John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Edward M. Kennedy, respectively were running for Senatorial posts, confident that each would achieve such high office. Later, I added a fourth, 'The Presidential Pen.' Please accept this labor of love along with its historic and sentimental value, in addition to my very best wishes."
