Description
Two packs of unopened king size L&M cigarettes branded with the Presidential Seal. Specially rolled and packaged for the President of the United States, these Liggett & Myers class A cigarettes feature the brand's iconic red and white 3.5 x 2.5'' packaging with a blue seal across the top of the pack.
While often seen with a cigar, President Kennedy did occasionally smoke cigarettes, but this particular brand was the one preferred by Jackie, who was known to be an avid smoker.
These items come directly from the Hirschy family. Lieutenant Hirschy was Supply and Logistics Officer for the Military Aides to the President and Officer-in-Charge of the Navy Mess in the White House during both the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. His duties also included taking care of the President’s needs on overseas trips, aboard the presidential yachts and at Camp David. Lt. Hirschy served in the White House from May 1, 1961 through May 31, 1965.
