MEMORABILIA: DOCUMENTS

 

Here I’m posting some of my Peace Corps memorabilia. There were other documents I haven’t been able to find, probably lost forever.

Among those lost documents are:

  1. A commendation letter sent by President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
  2. An appreciation letter sent by José Paulo Ribeiro, President of ACAR-Minas
  3. A letter sent by Vice-President Hubert Humphrey inviting to a Peace Corps meeting/conference to the held in Washington, DC in 1965
  4. A Peace Corps recruiting poster posted in the U.S. Post Offices in Puerto Rico using a picture of the Puerto Ricans serving in Brazil I Project
