This photograph album, likely compiled by Eunice Kennedy, documents various moments in the lives of the Kennedy family from 1950 to 1953, particularly at their residence in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, and at other locations on Cape Cod. An original typed inscription taped on the front pastedown reads, "I should appreciate it if no one remove pictures from this book. If you do so, it will not be so interesting for other people. Personally, I should like to keep all the pictures to look at myself, because as you know we lost all the moving pictures of you children. Many of these pictures have been lost in the past, due to the clamor of newspapermen, so please do not remove any more. Thank you. Rose Kennedy." In addition to Eunice, those pictured include her parents, Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr., and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy; siblings, John F. Kennedy, Patricia Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, Jean Kennedy, and Edward M. Kennedy; sister-in-law, Ethel Skakel Kennedy; cousin, Joseph Francis “Joe” Gargan, Jr.; and family friends, including Edward E. “Eddie” Moore and Mary Moore, Kirk LeMoyne “Lem” Billings, United States Senator Joseph “Joe” McCarthy, and journalist Frank Conniff. Of note are photographs of family members and friends aboard the “S.S. Hortense” off the coast of Cape Cod; birthday parties for Rose and Eunice; the christening of Kathleen Kennedy, daughter of Robert and Ethel; Jean posing at the Takadip Bath House in Old Orchard Beach, Maine; Rose, with Joseph, Sr., and Archbishop of New York, Cardinal Francis Spellman, receiving a Catholic Youth Organization 1953 Club of Champions Medal framed certificate; and Joseph, Sr., and John with Cardinal Spellman at the unveiling of a portrait of Lt. Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr., who was killed in action during a U.S. Navy aviation mission in 1944. Two loose items found between leaves of the album are a Washington Times-Herald newspaper clipping titled, “The Eisenhower Myth” and dated August 8, 1951, and an envelope containing original paper corners used for mounting photographs to album pages. This photograph album contains 59 photographic prints, one newspaper clipping, and one envelope containing paper photo mounting corners.
