Items from JFK’s estate up for auction
     2016-January-5  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

    AN auction house is selling the furniture and other items from the Kennedy family’s “Winter White House” this month.

    The Jan. 23 auction held by Leslie Hindman Auctioneers will sell 153 items from the Palm Beach, Florida, Kennedy compound.

    Some of the items include walnut beds, a walnut-framed massage table used by John F. Kennedy and his family, a Louis XV mahogany table and furniture framed by architect Addison Mizner, according to the Sun Sentinel.

    The oceanfront mansion, purchased by Joseph P Kennedy Sr. in 1933 for US$120,000, was designed by Addison Mizner in the 1920s.

    In 1995, John K. Castle bought the 11-bedroom home for US$4.92 million and bought most of the furnishings along with it.

    In May 2015, Castle sold the property to TGS Florida LLC for US$31 million.

    The auction will be held at Leslie Hindman’s office in West Palm Beach. Items will be available for preview starting Jan. 15. Bids for the items will be accepted by phone, online or in person.

    The home was used as a frequent retreat for the Kennedy family over the years.
