English:
Photo of President Kennedy signing anti-crime bills the Interstate Wire Act. At his right are ceremonial pens. The bills are signed, with the president making a stroke or two of his signature with one of the pens then giving it to someone who played a key role in making the bill a law. He then continues this process, making his signature a bit at a time, in order to produce a number of ceremonial pens, all of which were used to sign the particular bill into law.
