Description

LBJ pays his taxes—exceedingly rare check signed by President Johnson in 1967

Extremely rare Johnson City Bank check, 8.25 x 3, filled out in type and signed by Johnson as president, "Lyndon B. Johnson," payable to David W. Stewart, Tax Assessor-Collector for $194.50, October 3, 1967. In very fine condition. Of the five Lyndon B. Johnson signed checks we have encountered, this is just the second front-signed presidential example. The three others were endorsed by Johnson on the reverse, with two dating to his post-presidential retirement and the other during his time as Senate Majority Whip. Checks signed by sitting US presidents remain scarce and very desirable, and, in some instances, are completely unattainable—Johnson stands as one of the hardest to find of all modern-day presidents.
