RICHARD NIXON
11x14 color publicity photograph of Richard Nixon shaking hands with
Zeph Lane as Bobbie Lane looks on.
Photograph signed: "Richard Nixon". Color, 11x14 overall,
image 10½x11¼ (one surface). Inscribed in calligraphy: "To Bobbie and Zeph
Lane/With best wishes," 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. Image
is grainy. Lightly creased at corners. Fine condition.
