If you enjoy reading about and collecting memorabilia and news magazines of the early days of the John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson administrations, you'll enjoy Deank Rusk featured in these February 6, 1961 Newsweek and December 6, 1963 Time magazines. As U.S. secretary of state from 1961 to 1969, Dean Rusk was one of America's major Vietnam War policy makers. Rusk supported U.S. military involvement in Vietnam because he viewed the conflict as an important test of America's determination to contain communism around the world. As the war's popularity diminished during the LBJ administration, Rusk's steady defense of U.S. actions in Vietnam made him a controversial figure. The Newsweek documents "the new President's breathtaking first week with super text and photographs that really capture the energy of the Kennedy administration. The special report is all about Dean Rusk, the Kennedy Secretary of State, and those that worked for him in the administration. The Time magazine was published soon after Jack Kennedy was assassinated and has funeral pictures, and it details the early days of the LBJ adminstration and again features Dean Rusk. Both magazines are in very good condition given the age, with only a tiny 1.0" tear on the very back page of the Newsweek. Both magazines are also filled with some of the best vintage advertising we've seen in a long time, with ads for the Gas pavillion at the Disneyland World of Tomorrow, ads for B.F. Goodrich and Boeing that feature their links to the U.S. space program soon to put a man on the moon, and a hard to find ad for the Studebaker Avanti sports car. $22.00/ 2 magazines
