Description

One year before the Teamster leader’s disappearance

Program for a testimonial banquet honoring Secretary-Treasurer Joseph C. Conlon of Teamsters Local 25, held in Boston on September 28, 1974, 5.5 x 8, signed at the top in blue ballpoint, “James R. Hoffa.” In very good condition, with scattered stains and creases. Hoffa had become one of America’s most prominent labor leader as a Teamster figurehead beginning in the early 1950s, during which time he developed connections with organized crime. He would famously disappear the year after this banquet, mysteriously vanishing in late July. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
