Greetings Booklovers,

We are pleased to offer:
~
(No. 7907 )  Hamilton, Charles. THE ROBOT THAT HELPED TO MAKE A PRESIDENT: A 
RECONNAISSANCE INTO THE MYSTERIES OF JOHN F. KENNEDY'S SIGNATURE.
New York: (s.n.), 1965. First printing, Full cloth, Folio, xvi, 63 pages, 
Black & white photographs, facsimiles. Good in a fair dust jacket, Jacket in 
Mylar protector.
      Expert study of President Kennedy's genuine signature, his known 
Autopen signature patterns, and the workings of the Autopen machine itself. 
Includes two separate items laid in: 1) a single sheet titled "Robot 
Signature, Pattern VII" which shows an Autopen pattern discovered by 
Hamilton after publication of the book; and 2) a translucent overly sheet 
with the seven JFK Autopen patterns printed on it for easy identification of 
matches. Published by the author in a limited edition of unspecified 
quantity. Bound in dark blue cloth over boards with gilt-stamped spine title 
and gilt device on at lower fore corner of upper board. Some evidence of 
adhesion/separation between book and jacket along fore edges of boards, 
apparently from dampness, though interior of book remains clean and 
unaffected. Jacket has some significant overall foxing, some mild edge wear, 
and some moisture stains. Still a solid copy with the extra signature 
examples laid in.    $150.00
