Description

"Che" signs off on vacation time

Partly-printed DS in Spanish, signed “Che,” one page, 8.25 x 12.75, September 15, 1964. Cuban Ministry of Industries vacation request document, approved at the conclusion by Guevara. In very good condition, with folds, overall creasing, and tears to the edges; Che's signature is clear and unaffected. Guevara was at the very top of Castro’s government when this document was signed, serving not only as minister of industries but as president of the Cuban National Bank. Despite his high status, the activist in Guevara disliked his official duties—leading him to dismissively and diminutively sign solely as "Che" in his governmental capacities.
