JAMES A. BEAVER
The Pennsylvania Governor signs his name on a card, and dates it 1888
Printed card signed in ink: "James A. Beaver/July 1888", in black ink, 4¼x2½. James A. Beaver (1837-1914) served as the Governor of Pennsylvania from 1887 to 1891. After graduating from college, Beaver began practicing law, but took a break to volunteer for a local military company. He served as second lieutenant for the company during the Civil War, fighting for the Union, and being so well regarded as a leader that his units were often confused for full time soldiers. After the war ended, Beaver again pursued law, being elected to the board of trustees of Pennsylvania State College. He was often asked to run for public office, but did not do so until 1881, losing to his opponent. Beaver was elected in 1887, and served for one term. Heavily toned. Corners slightly worn. Fine condition.
