WITH: an archive of original photographs, including 12 4 x 6-inch candid photographs of an event (likely at Kennedy's NY campaign headquarters), 4 4 x 6-inch color photographs of Kennedy at the Puerto Rican Day parade c. 1966068, 5 8 x 10-inch photographs of Kennedy at same (stamped to the verso Louis Salzburg), 4 8 x 10-inch photographs of Kennedy at other events, and one on a boat with family.
A RARE RFK AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT OF QUOTES FROM THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. Written entirely in his hand, the manuscript compiles quotes from Hemingway ("...a man's duty to understand his world rather than simply to fight for it"), Bacon ("no comparison between that which we might lose by not trying and by [not] succeeding"), Camus and others. Angie Cabrera was Robert Kennedy's New York secretary and special campaign assistant on Hispanic affairs. The letter from Kennedy from Nassau captures their closeness with humor, "I left the rum at home - but the memory lingers on ... It was I know a sacrilege to make a daiquiri with part of it - but I have always had a great faith in irreverence ... I owe my survival of Christmas (and I might add - my subsequent suffering) to you. Remind me some time to do something nice for the Puerto Rican community will you ... At night I still dream of the robo machine, and labor leaders in flowered shirts attacking me with their diamond pinky rings. Take care of everything - don't go off with any skis you didn't buy - and remember I'll be back much, much too soon...."
