<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "My great uncle met lots of important people."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/54.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net My great uncle met lots of important people. Joe Rosenthal, Richard Nixon, Lyndon B. Johnson and J.F.K. And he has the signed photos and correspondence to prove it. I can't believe I'm only finding out about all of this now!

The best part is, the Antiques Roadshow is coming to our city very soon, and I'm sure they would love to see all of this! Especially the signed menu from Kenndy's inaugural dinner. You could have green turtle soup for a dollar. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179180.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179180.page GMT My great uncle met lot of important people. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179186.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179186.page GMT My great uncle met lot of important people. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179199.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179199.page GMT Re:My great uncle met lot of important people. St. Patrick's Day parade. This was how he came to know all those people and why he was invited to Kennedy's inauguration. Something about successful Irish Americans banding together. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179300.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716469/9179300.page GMT My great uncle met lots of important people.

Way cool! Are you going to try and get the Kennedy Inauguration menu on Antiques Road Show?


Sadly it's not up to me. It's up to my great aunt and she's crazily protective of this stuff. It's why I'm only finding out about it now. I would like too though.
