Description

President of Haiti (1907-1971) from 1957 until his death, whose rule, based on a purged military and the use of a pervasive cult of personality, resulted in the murder of 30,000 to 60,000 Haitians and the exile of many more. Vintage matte-finish 7.5 x 9.5 photo of the Haitian despot, signed in the lower border in fountain pen. In very good to fine condition, with light rippling and a small stain to the lower left corner, and a small tear in the center of the photo on Duvalier's lapel. From the Collection of Dr. Lawrence E. Miller.
