Richard Nixon signs the back of an advertisement for parking at
Ratzsch which has the first parking garage in Wisconsin in blue ink.
Advertisement signed: "Richard Nixon", 4¾x6 when open on the
verso of an advertisement for parking at Ratzch which has the first parking
garage in Wisconsin. Richard Milhous Nixon (1913-1994) was elected
37th President of the United States in 1968 after representing California
in the U.S. House of Representatives (1947-1951) and U.S. Senate (1951-1953) and
serving two terms as Dwight D. Eisenhower's Vice President (1953-1961). He
lost (1960), then won, extremely close Presidential elections (facing John F.
Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey, respectively), then won re-election by a landslide
against George McGovern in 1972. Nixon's re-election triumph rapidly turned
sour, however, as the burgeoning Watergate scandal claimed more and more of his
key aides and finally compelled his own resignation in August 1974. A pragmatic
conservative who gained an early reputation as an anti-communist but achieved
diplomatic triumphs in relations with China and the Soviet Union, Nixon's
prolific writing in his retirement years helped repair his reputation and hasten
his re-emergence as an elder statesman. Fold crease in middle not near
signature. Fine condition.
