Description

Unique Truman book page signed by an impressive eight former Commanders-in-Chief

Unique half-title page removed from Harry S. Truman’s Mr. Citizen, 5.5 x 9, signed in ink and felt tip by eight former presidents: “George W. Bush,” “Bill Clinton,” “Harry S. Truman,” “Jimmy Carter,” “Gerald Rudolph Ford,” “Ronald Reagan” (as president), “Richard Nixon,” and “George Bush.” A clipped caption is affixed to the center, covering a Clinton autopen signature. In fine condition, with a small tear to top edge, and some mild surface rubbing from erased pencil notations. Accompanied by a notarized letter verifying Reagan’s signature from during his presidency; a letter from Senator Mitch McConnell regarding the George Bush signature; and a ticket to an August 30, 1996, Clinton/Gore event where Clinton’s signature was obtained. This very page was featured in an article in Pen and Quill magazine when it had been signed by six presidents, used as an example of an authentic George Bush signature, and referred to as ‘superb.’ Truman’s signature dates from the late 1950s or early ’60s, with the other signatures acquired during the ’80s and ’90s. A one-of-a-kind set, this page holds the highest quantity of presidential signatures on a single item we have ever offered. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
