 From one of the largest and finest selections of Signed Presidential 
books, letters, and photographs offered for sale anywhere, with items 
added frequently.  See many more at http://www.charlesagvent.com

[JOHNSON, Lyndon B.] AIKMAN, Lonnelle. THE LIVING WHITE HOUSE. 
Washington: White House Historical Association, (1966). First Edition. 
Bound in full dark green leather with gilt rules on the front cover and 
gilt lettering on the spine. Illustrated with drawings and color 
photographs. Foreword by Lady Bird Johnson with an introduction by Bruce 
Catton. One of an edition of only 100 copies specially bound, this 
numbered "87" in pencil in the upper right corner of the limitation 
page. Although not called for, this copy is INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the 
President on the limitation page: "To Betty/Who like some other 
things/gets better with the years./Happy Birthday/Affectionately/Lyndon 
B. Johnson." The smallest limitation of any book associated with Johnson 
that we have encountered. The recipient's last name has been roughly 
erased and the inscription, though not Johnson's signature, has had the 
ink smeared though it is easily readable. Spine tips a little rubbed but 
no other wear. Very Good and scarce. (#013374)        $1,500.00
