Kennedy Cover Catalog, the definitive reference documenting thousands of Kennedy-related postal covers and cachets.

The interior sweatband is gold-stamped "JFK," identifying it as having been specially produced for the President. The hat, which was personally presented by JFK to Benjamin A. Smith II, is the sale's expected top lot, with an estimate of $12,000-$15,000.
