Kennedy White House Key FOB?




Submitted by Anne:
I recently found under the car mat of an old 1961 Lincoln sedan. A preliminary search turned up nothing but to be honest, I'm not very well versed in American political anything so when I came across your site, I wondered if you could be of assistance. Have you ever come across a key fob like this ? What was it a key fob for (other than keys)? What was it issued for? Is it even politically related or was there a hotel called The Whitehouse ?

Pentagon Papers Scandal Button


Submitted by Deyna:
I have in my possession a very rare button from the New York Times Washington Bureau, circulated at the time of the Pentagon Paper scandal. Button reads:
FREE The Times XXII. I worked at the Detroit Free Press at the time, and was given this button as a gift. The front of the button is in perfect shape. The back interior some small spots of rust.

Can you please help me?
