President Johnson’s superior quality personally-owned and -used handsome blue leather box, measuring 5.5 x 4.25 x 1.25, lined with soft navy fabric inside, gilt-stamped on the top with his initials, “L. B. J.” Includes a letter of provenance on a White House card from Toi Bachelder, a White House secretary. In part: “This blue leather box imprinted in gold letters, ‘L.B.J.’ was owned and used by President Lyndon Johnson. It…is outlined around the edge with a gold design. I began service at the White House in 1933, with FDR, and I retired in 1967. President Johnson held a private reception for me in the Cabinet Room and the Oval Office.” Condition is rather impeccable. From the Raleigh DeGeer Amyx Collection.
