HERBERT HOOVER
Large photo of an older Hoover, smoking a pipe, inscribed to a friend.
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To my good friend/Ed Anthony/from Herbert Hoover". B/w with brown hue, 10½x13¾ overall, image 7¼x9¾ (one surface) attached to Styrofoam board of same size. Herbert Clark Hoover (1874-1964), a mining engineer and self-made millionaire, served as the 31st U.S. President from 1929-1933. Blamed by many voters for the Great Depression, he was defeated in his bid for re-election by Franklin D. Roosevelt. Hoover, a capable administrator, had headed the Food Administration to provide relief to Europe and Russia during and after WWI and served as Secretary of Commerce under Presidents Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge (1921-1928). The second President to attain the age of 90 years (John Adams was the first), Hoover lived a record 31 years after leaving the presidency. During his "retirement", he was appointed to commissions to oversee government agencies by Presidents Harry S Truman (1947) and Dwight D. Eisenhower (1953). Hoover also wrote a number of books and articles. Lightly creased at blank margins and corners. Paper clip impression at upper left blank margin. Adequate contrast of signature. Otherwise, fine condition.
