3½x2. Joseph Allen Frear, Jr. (1903-1993) was an American businessman and
politician. He served as commissioner of Delaware State College in Dover
(1936-1941) and of the Delaware Old Age Welfare Commission (1938-1948). Also
interested in banking, he was director (1938-1946) and chairman of the board
(1946-1948) of the Federal Land Bank in Baltimore, Maryland. Frear was
elected to the U.S. Senate in 1948, defeating incumbent Republican Senator
C. Douglass Buck in a close race. During this term, he served in the
Democratic majority in the 81st and 82nd Congresses, and the Democratic minority
in the 83rd Congress. He was later elected again to the U.S. Senate in 1954,
defeating Republican Representative Herbert B. Warburton by a wider than
expected margin. During this term, he again served with the Democratic majority
in the 84th, 85th, and 86th Congresses. Toned. Corners rounded. Otherwise, fine
