Mementos of what could have been.
And also a testament to the incredibly busy schedule John and Jacqueline Kennedy had planned for their visit to Texas on 22 November 1963, that was tragically interrupted by the President's assassination in Dealy Plaza in Dallas in the early afternoon. Had the assassination not occurred, the First Couple were to travel to the Dallas Trade Mart for a luncheon and then to Austin, Texas that evening for a dinner at the Municipal Auditorium. The present unused ticket would have been issued to a member of the press with a restriction that they could only be present in the balcony.
The printed program accompanying the tickets specifies that the evening that was to begin at 7:30 pm and includes a tribute by Texas Governor John Connally, portraits of John and Jacqueline Kennedy and Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson, a list of the Texas Congressional delegation, advertisements, a transcript of the Bill of Rights and concluding with a tribute to Jacqueline Kennedy's efforts to her important work restoring the historic treasures of the White House.
