Description

“All is not gold that glitters”

Politician (1860–1947) who introduced the Volstead Act, passed in 1919 to establish Prohibition. TQS, signed “A. J. Volstead,” on a 5 x 3 card, dated June 30, 1936. Quote reads, in full: “During an industrial depression hesitate to change old and tried forms of Government; such periods are not favorable to clear thinking and gives the self-seaking [sic] demagogue the vantage ground for destroying human liberty. All is not gold that glitters.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
