DS as president, one page, 19.25 x 15.25, November 21, 1989. President Bush designates Pearl Bailey as "a Representative of the United States of America to the Forty-fourth Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations." Boldly signed at the conclusion in black felt tip by President George Bush; also bears the autopen signature of Secretary of State James Baker. The white paper seal affixed to the lower left remains fully intact. Double-matted to an overall size of 24 x 20. In fine condition. George Bush remains excessively rare in signed presidential appointments, with this example representing just the fourth that we have ever offered.
Celebrated as an actress and singer, Pearl Bailey (1918–1990) was appointed by President Richard Nixon as the nation's 'Ambassador of Love' in 1970, and she served as a Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations throughout the 1970s and 1980s. She used her platform to promote peace and cultural understanding, traveling worldwide to engage in humanitarian efforts. Bailey's charismatic presence and advocacy for unity made her a beloved figure within the United Nations community.
