Matte-finish 9.5 x 12 head-and-shoulders photo of the Israeli prime minister, signed in the lower border in black ink in English and Hebrew, "M. Begin," and inscribed in another hand: "To: Mr. Philip Habib, With best wishes and warmest regards." In very good to fine condition, with a few light surface creases, and a heavier crease to the upper right corner tip. Habib was a career diplomat who is remembered for his work as Ronald Reagan's special envoy to the Middle East. In that role, he averted an Israel-Syria war and an Israel-PLO war in 1981, then negotiated a peaceful end to Israel's 1982 siege of Beirut.
