    Rare India President Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan 1963 Signed Photo w American VIP
    Up for sale is a very rare or perhaps one of a kind image of India's beloved President Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan.  It is signed in ink by him and dated November 13, 1963--just a few days before the assassination of President Kennedy.  President Radhakrishnan is having an official dinner with an American VIP.  The American's face looks so familiar but I cannot figure out who he is--I'm thinking likely a politician of course.  If anyone knows who the American is I'd sure appreciate the help.  There is a bit of the face of the man sitting to the left of the President and he looks like he might be an American too.  The President had an official visit with President Kennedy in the US earlier that year but because this is dated in November my guess is this is not the United States.  The photo is a black and white 8" X 10".  The only notation on the back is "6121" written in pencil in the top left corner.  There is some aging on the back and a slight impression from a paperclip that doesn't stand out on the front side.  The image side is in very nice condition as is the autograph.  I purchased this at an estate auction in Southern California without any explanation.  It's a great, rare (possibly one-of-a-kind) photo of President Radhakrishnan, signed and dated and if we can figure out who is with him--it could be even more interesting.
    *Please note that my shipping time is up to 5 business days as I have multiple jobs and can only ship one day a week.  If you happen to purchase after I return from the post office on shipping day it will be a full week wait until I am able to ship again.  But most people will have a much shorter wait and some will have very fast shipping.  No one will have to wait more than 5 business days.  Thank you for understanding.
