Rare John F Kennedy Artifacts and Jackie Kennedy Clothing Exhibits

[@jeffbengtsson3398]

I live in Rockford. I had no idea this museum exists just minutes away. I will be visiting soon. I was born in 1963. Just 5 months old that November day.

You should come here to wexford Ireland to see the Kennedy homestead and artifacts 🇮🇪

[@alfredfreedomjones5105]

Yes! Would love this!

Fascinating video. Thanks for posting it. Next best thing to seeing these items in person!😊

Oleg Cassini is entombed about 15 minutes from where I live on Long Island. He really was a wonderful designer. Very interesting video.

[@brendadrew834]

@elizabethmckenna5397 Interesting, I'm a former retired NYC fashion illustrator back in the late 1960s and 70s, and once wore a dress designed by Cassini. He did a line of linen sleevelss summer dresses just above the knee, representing the different flags in Europe so I chose his red dress with a bold white cross designed across the front, the flag of Switzerland because I have some Swiss ancestry. He was very innovative that way but he was also influenced by Jackie's favorite designer, French designer Givenchy who designed for Audrey Hepburn who also influenced the way Jackie dressed in the 1950s and 60s.

Loved seeing all the stuff

[@jshonert]

This is fabulous. Really impressed by the Collection. I knew Jackie‘s niece. What a class act and a big heart. ❤️ I remember how thrilling it was for us Americans to see this gorgeous first lady come into the White House. She started the White House historical Association with her restoration. She told my friend her niece that when she went to the White House for the walk-through with Maimie Eisenhower - - the house was full of modern furniture bought at Sears! And the staircase going up to the living quarters was painted Pepto-Bismol pink! Jackie got to work right away and stole the heart of America with her trip through the white house with Charles Collingwood .

Wow that is so interesting to see. Just love looking at pieces of history, especially since I can remember all or most of it.

[@FreyzelProductions]

Looking at these items can really take you back in time, it is pretty amazing!

[@bernardsherry5642]

I believe many of the items may have come from the estate of the late Robert L White. Mr. White was a friend of mine. Great Post

[@FreyzelProductions]

Thank you. That name does sound familiar from conversations with the folks at the museum. He had an amazing collection.

This is fascinating. Thank you for posting this video so we can see some of it. I doubt I’ll ever have reason to come to Illinois so this is a great chance to “visit” the museum. ❤

So many cool things! I love the Kennedy Family histoery. It's a fascinating look at a political family. You always do an awesome job of Presidential videos. I hope you get back to California eventually. I'd like to see a more detailed look of the Nixon Presidential site. Thank you so much for showing us more of this great museum! ❤❤❤

[@lory2videos]

Looking forward to more JFK content!

[@jackschoebel3286]

amazing museum

[@normaskroch]

boy some really mouthy people watching. I found it very interesting from history. I guess people must get out of their mind somewhere. Good Job. Thanks!

[@JustTurned61]

snazzy and classy...wow.

[@Bobtowngarden]

One thing you may not know about father James m Thompson. He invent the electric wet suit zipper.

[@brendadrew834]

Fascinating I bet, wish I had seen this, too! Many items and fashions can also be seen at the Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston and on Cape Cod in Hyannis at the JFK Museum there! I've live on the Cape not far from the Kennedy Compound and have most of the books published about them, my own personal Kennedy Library. Jackie was also influenced by French couturier Herbert de Givenchy and Cassini of European nobility merely copied many of Givenchy's fashions! Jackie wanted to be dressed by Givenchy but JFK wanted her to be dressed by an American designer so she went with Oleg Cassini! She actually designed her own Inaugural gown as well! The late beautiful actress/humanitarian Audrey Hepburn was a lifelong friend of Givenchy and Jackie was also influenced by how Audrey dressed, they had more in common than most people realize. I'm a former retired NYC fashion illustrator and spent a lot of time following those two famous fashion icons back in the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s until they both passed away from cancers in their early 60s mostly because both of them were lifelone smokers i.e. nicotene addicts. Both had miscarriages and a still born birth, both born the same year 1929 and we now know that smoking causes miscarriages/stillborn births and low weight babies who can also get Hyaline membrane disease, what Patrick Kennedy died of in 1963! Lost a nephew from the same disease when he was a newborn. Thanks for the tour, much appreciated!

[@sorryibroughtitup]

Wow! This is an incredible collection! I am holding my breath for the day when they put the pink dress from Nov 22 on display. I know it still exists in a temp controlled room somewhere!!!!!

[@lauriewhite9574]

It's at the the Smithsonian so that won't be happening

[@sorryibroughtitup]

@@lauriewhite9574 it’s on display at the Smithsonian??!

[@lauriewhite9574]

@sorryibroughtitup no it is not on display but they have it. I saw the info on a show recently. Jackie's mother sent it to them. They have no plans to display it though.

[@sorryibroughtitup]

@@lauriewhite9574 ahh I see. Wow.

[@joyparrilli9261]

If you are doing a documentary of the Kennedy's just an FYI their daughters name was Caroline NOT Carolyn !

[@haleykruse1014]

Why did they not eat the birthday cake on the day of the party

[@2007cgarza]

How did these artifacts land in Illinois?

[@paulinabugaj6897]

Auction maybe?

[@3verything_3dits]

Enjoyed this at 4 am!! Haha

[@marlenepearson3936]

Fascinating 😮

[@maryjones0147]

OMG super interesting, I wonder why do you have this museum in Illinois when we in Boston just a few pieces? but well, thanks for sharing!

[@janeferguson4455]

CaroLINE Kennedy not Carolyn !

[@Zzzz-h1r]

❤❤❤

[@ralphgilbert9527]

Why are the things in Ill?

[@FreyzelProductions]

The original collection was purchased by a collector who opened this museum.

[@lacofdsquad7]

I thought that Father Huber gave JFK the last rites of the church at Parkland Hospital.

[@FreyzelProductions]

they were both present at the time

[@johnryskamp2943]

He wouldn't stop pestering Jackie, and at one point she said, "Oh Father, please leave me alone."

[@greeneyedqt90]

I wonder why they never wanna share the pink coat that Jackie Kennedy was wearing

[@JWilson-z4x]

This is the last time i heard anything about the Kennedys I'm done with them. But I'll still watch your videos

[@bender7565]

LBJ sucked even if he wasn't involved in the coverup.

[@ShirleySàlter-r6q]

Sad that Evelyn Lincoln lifted these items from the family. She presented Jackie.

[@JLNeis]

I hate to tell you but I believe the original ambulance from O'neals had only 1 red light in the middle if the roof.

[@johnp139]

It’s called VC-25A, not AF-1.

[@joeyg2860]

A lot of good could have been done, for a lot of people, with what all that ‘class’ cost.

[@roshawncrawford2524]

No
