America will forever treasure the 1,000 days of "Camelot," when a young President transformed the Oval Office into a royal throne and optimism pervaded the nation, only to be shattered by an assassin's bullets in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. The triumph and tragedy of the John F. Kennedy years are brought home by this light brown lock of JFK's hair preserved in a transparent cover beneath a photo of Kennedy on that fateful day in Dallas. The piece will evoke memories both joyful and terrible for anyone old enough to know exactly where they were and what they were doing the day that America's innocence died in Dealey Plaza.
