I would PM Jon Canfield or Mike Navarro. Both are pretty good with JFK

Wow! Does the second line of that scrawl say "with best wishes"?? Took me forever to decipher it.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I'm not an expert, so don't take this as anything more than casual conversation, but I read somewhere that JFK's handwriting was always illegible to some degree - which is one reason why his autograph is difficult to authenticate.

I believe this to be an authentic signature and inscription in the hand of JFK. I have studied Kennedy's scrawl to a considerable degree, although there are certainly more seasoned experts out there. If this is available for sale, I would likely go for it, although having seen secretarially signed copies in major auction house catalogs, there will likely always be a strong possibility of disagreement as to authenticity with Kennedy material such as this.
