Dave Powers Official Staff JFK Badge

A remarkable item from the days of the New Frontier. Dave Powers was one of JFK's most trusted advisers. Items that he saved from his time in the White House were passed on to a family friend, who in turn is making this one available to collectors. Powers was one of JFK’s best friends and later served as curator of the Kennedy Museum and Library. The badge is a 3 1/4-inch paper and laminated plastic staff badge that belonged to Powers with his name on it. Excellent condition.
