NEW YORK (AP) -- Camelot, quite literally, has gone up in flames.

An estimated 40,000 images, on negatives from the late photographer Jacques
Lowe's work with President John F. Kennedy and his family, are believed to
have been in a destroyed bank vault beneath the World Trade Center.

Lowe, who took some of the most famous pictures of America's most famous
political family, died in May at age 71.

Among his most recognizable images are one of Kennedy, who suffered from a
back ailment, leaning against his White House desk in November 1961 and one
of Jacqueline Kennedy, in a yellow and white checkered dress, posing on a
deck chair in Hyannis Port, Mass., in the summer of 1960.

Lowe's agent, Woody Camp, said the negatives recorded "everything that
related to the Kennedys. There were photographs of meetings during the Bay
of Pigs. ... Historically, there's a lot that's not there any more."  [...]
