CHARLES E. POTTER
The Michigan senator poses for official portrait, signs name and "best wishes" in black ink
Photograph signed: "Best Wishes/Charles E Potter". B/w, 8x10. Photograph by "miller of washington" (imprint at lower left). Typed caption on verso: "U.S. Senator Charles E. Potter, of Michigan". Charles Edward Potter (1916-1979) served as a Republican U.S. Senator from Michigan from 1952, when he was appointed to fill a vacancy, until 1959. He had previously served as U.S. Representative from Michigan from 1947-1952. Potter, a decorated veteran of WWII (Purple Heart, two Silver Stars), lost both of his legs during the war. A confidant of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Potter wrote a memoir, Days of Shame (1965), about McCarthyism, a topic on which he had frequently advised "Ike". After his public service, Potter became an industrial consultant and international securities executive. He is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Lightly creased at blank margins and corners, nicked at upper blank edge, chipped at upper right blank corner. Minor surface creases and scratches (most not evident head on). Diagonal smudge at right background. Overall, fine condition.
