Yeah, I've noticed a lot of people say stuff after they're dead that they never said when they were alive. Went to the web site where they're hawking the book. Amateur quality site, want $1,000 per book, with a certificate of authenticity, signed by Gerald Ford. Checked their shopping cart, and apparently isn't a secure connection. At least the lock didn't show up and I sure wasn't going to go in deep enough to have to give them any information.

Here's what I THINK it is. I think somebody got the original Warren Commission Report and reprinted it. They may have told Ford's staff they were going to do this, and some junior staff member wrote up a generalized introduction acknowledging the controversial nature of the Report. It says the book comes with a copy of a photo of Ford signing the books, but doesn't show the photo. There's a possibility the photo is of Ford signing the original Warren Commission Report. Here's a blurb from the limited edition:

President Gerald R. Ford's final words on the assassination in this exclusive new foreword written when he was the final surviving member of the Warren Commission, which investigated the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Definitive NEW information provided here exclusively! This leather bound, DELUXE Limited Edition was hand-signed by President Ford shortly before his death, and comes in a solid walnut, laser engraved, wooden box which also contains artifacts from the Oak Tree and White Picket Fence from the "Grassy Knoll!" Each copy is produced using the highest quality heirloom materials! ONLY 50 WERE EVER PRODUCED!
Pieces of the oak tree and white picket fence? Also, it doesn't look like Ford actually signed the books. The signature looks like it's on a card inserted in the books. Check the web site here. Sorry guys, this screams scam.
