President John F. Kennedy's blood-stained long underwear is up for sale on eBay for a surprising price of 1 million dollars. There is a blood stain near the ankle of the long underwear that may contain possible DNA traces belonging to Kennedy. Kennedy served as president from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. The garment shows signs of frequent use and some parts were used in making a collector's doll. The blood stains were discovered later. This long underwear is one of the two pairs sold at the Kennedy auction in 1998. It later changed hands through a private sale and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The seller claims that they noticed the stains years later and had them examined by forensic experts. It is estimated that the injury was on the lower leg and the blood spread from there. President Kennedy's long underwear has an interesting history. It has been featured in various publications since 1979. It is said that Jackie Kennedy wrapped her wedding items in this underwear and took them to an antique dealer. The seller hopes to sell this historical piece to a "good home".
