WESTBROOK PEGLER
Small card signed with columnist Westbrook Pegler's "Best
wishes"
Autograph sentiment signed "Best wishes/Westbrook Pegler" in
blue ink. 5¼x3¼ card. American journalist Pegler (1894-1969), born
James Westbrook Pegler, wrote popular syndicated columns from the 1930s to the
1950s and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1941 for reporting on racketeering in
Hollywood labor unions. He began his career while still in high school,
working for the United Press, and subsequently reported for the United News
(1919-1925) and the Chicago Tribune (1925-33) before becoming a
syndicated columnist, eventually reaching around 10 million subscribers.
Pegler had a biting and sarcastic writing style, which he used to oppose both
fascism in Europe and the New Deal in America and a frequent critic of President
Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor. He became increasingly
conservative as his career progressed, eventually targeting the Supreme Court,
labor unions, the wealthy, the tax system and, finally, Jews, and was
successfully sued for libel by one of his targets, Quentin Reynolds, in 1954.
His columns ended in 1962, and he was even dropped from American Opinion,
the magazine of the right-wing John Birch Society, for his anti-Semitic views.
Lightly toned, otherwise in fine condition.
