19647882Staten Island NY: The Herald of Freedom 1964. First Edition. Original wraps. Very Good. 7 X 9 3/8 Inches. 70 PP. Uncommon original issue of the infamous booklet that first suggested that Marilyn Monroe was having a relationship with Bobby Kennedy and that Kennedy was responsible for her death. After Monroe's untimely death in 1962 this accusation seemed a bit wild as there was no proof that Monroe and Bobby Kennedy were involved with each other. This all changed in 2016 when a letter from Bobby's younger sister Jean Kennedy Smith was located and sold at auction:<br /> <br /> "Understand that you and Bobby are the new item" and "We all think you should come with him when he comes back East!"<br /> <br /> After the publicaton of this book it is now known that Bobby Kennedy the Attorney General had Capell's phone tapped. Capell was widely known as a conspiracy theorist and anticommunist activist. With the benefit of hindsight his case in the matter seems a bit sensational but remains compelling nonetheless. <br /> <br /> Original covers intact but loose. Front cover now mostly hidden by an original photograph of an unknown male dressed as Marilyn Monroe. A few additional pasted photos. Some light soiling throughout. An interesting piece of 20th Century conspiracy literature. The Herald of Freedom unknown
