RICHARD NIXON
Richard Nixon signs an engraving of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
White House Engraving signed: "Richard Nixon". B/w, 8x6
overall, oval image 4½x2¼ (one surface). View of the right approach to the
White House. 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. Fine condition.
