Description
Rutherford B. Hayes Autographed Letter Signed to Dr. W.P. Jones Regarding President-Elect Benjamin Harrison Dated 14 January 1889. We are extremely pleased to present an exclusive artifact, an Autographed Letter Signed (ALS) by former U.S. President Rutherford B. Hayes to Dr. W.P. Jones, dated 14th January 1889. This historical document offers a significant connection to our nation's past, detailing Hayes' thoughts on the newly elected President Benjamin Harrison. As such, it provides a rare glimpse into the politics and presidential transitions of the late 19th century. The letter reflects Hayes' personal style and convictions, making it an incomparable piece for a discerning collector. Benjamin Harrison, who served as the 23rd president of the United States, took office after the tenure of President Grover Cleveland from 1885 to 1889 as the grandson of the ninth president, William Henry Harrison. Hayes' perspective on this historical moment encapsulated in this piece demonstrates an intriguing interplay of family dynasty, politics, and governance that shaped our nation. This one-of-a-kind artifact measures approximately 7x9.5 inches, featuring Hayes' distinctive script, and it is in excellent condition considering its age, further enhancing its historic appeal. Cosmetically, the paper has naturally aged over the past century, giving it a distinguished patina, but the writing remains crisp and legible. The ALS has been professionally encased in a museum-grade custom designed matt for optimal preservation, highlighting its historical value and delicately displaying the exquisite penmanship of President Hayes. Accompanying the artifact is an elegant, custom-designed frame crafted to further accentuate the letter's distinctly antiqued sophistication. The matt and frame are tastefully designed to match any decor and add an air of old-world elegance to the display piece. This framed piece would make a striking addition to a personal library, office, or study, as well as a museum collection. Bid now for the opportunity to own an exceptional piece of American political history, personally penned by a former president! This letter not only encapsulates the United States' historical narrative but also transcends it, offering a personal testament to the shifting dynamics and sentiments of the time. This is an item than any history enthusiast or rare document collector will treasure! As with all antique items, the artifact and its protective casing should be handled delicately to preserve their conditions. Any future conservation needs should be addressed professionally. Hurry, bid now on this historical treasure before it's too late!
