FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. Engraved Card signed: "Franklin D
Roosevelt" as Governor of New York, 4¾x2¾. Engraved: "State of
New York/Executive Mansion/Albany". Gold embossed seal of the state of New York
at upper left margin. As Governor of New York (1929-1933), Franklin D.
Roosevelt (1882-1945) promoted judicial reform, the development of hydroelectric
power and affordable energy rates for consumers. In response to the Great
Depression (1929-1939), which left one out of every four American workers
unemployed, he implemented state relief programs, which proved to be the
basis of his presidential New Deal legislation. Roosevelt's popularity as
Governor, evidenced by his landslide win for re-election in 1930, escalated
after his investigation of James J. Walker forced the corrupt New York City
Mayor to resign (1932). After solidly defeating Herbert Hoover in the 1932
presidential election, Roosevelt, who would be elected to a record four terms
in office (1933-1945), spent his first "Hundred Days" in the Oval Office
stabilizing the banking crisis and initiating his economic relief, recovery and
reform programs. During WWII (1939-1945), the 32nd U.S. President aided the
British with his Lend-Lease Program and devised Allied strategy to assure
military victories over Germany and Japan. Slightly soiled. Fine condition.
Framed in the Gallery of History style: 18x21½.
