John F. Kennedy, Jr. Pale Blue Rosary Given to the

Item Details

Description

John F. Kennedy, Jr. baby gift, pale blue bead rosary given to the Kennedys after the birth of John, Jr., from the collection of Mary Barelli Gallagher (born 1928), Jacqueline Kennedy's private secretary. The 17.75" rosary has narrow pale blue beads, and an oval Jesus medallion with silver-finished crucifix. Comes with its original vintage paper mount entitled "My Rosary." With expected light surface wear, else near fine. Accompanied by an original provenance document signed by Mary Barelli Gallagher on March 16, 2015.

As Gallagher explains, "This baby gift is one of the many gifts that had arrived daily to the home of President-Elect and Mrs. John F. Kennedy, 3307 N St., N.W., Georgetown, Washington, D.C. on the occasion of John Jr.'s birth, November 25, 1960. Mrs. Kennedy would ask that I prepare a letter of thanks to the sender for her to sign, and this is one of the gifts that she offered me to take home. I donated the vast majority of these gifts to various charities, others I gave away to friends, relatives, etc., keeping the more interesting ones, such as this, for myself…"Since John F. Kennedy, Jr. was the first baby ever born to an incoming elected president, John-John's firsts were monitored with universal interest. The Kennedys received many gifts from around the world, ranging from booties knitted by Kennedy supporters watching televised election debates, to some Catholic devotional gifts like this rosary.Mary Barelli Gallagher served as secretary to then Massachusetts Senator John F. Kennedy between 1953-1956, and as private secretary to Jackie Kennedy between 1956-1964. During her time working for the Kennedys, Gallagher collected notes, photos, and mementos, and even inherited some of Jackie's clothing and pets. Some of Gallagher's recollections are shared in her 1969 My Life with Jacqueline Kennedy.
