By William J. Kole, The Associated Press — Aug 3 2018

BOSTON — Some of the most iconic items associated with the late President John F. Kennedy are going on the auction block.

Eldred’s auction gallery in East Dennis, on Cape Cod, is taking bids Friday on a rocking chair that JFK used in the Oval Office . . . .

. . . .

The upholstered oak rocking chair, worn yet still expected to fetch between $50,000 and $70,000, is particularly emblematic. JFK often was photographed sitting in it while meeting with world leaders. The former president’s doctors urged him to use rockers to ease his chronic back pain.”
