Description

Three days before assuming the presidency, Vice President Truman issues a scarce Senate pass

Scarce United States Senate Chamber pass, 4 x 2.75, issued to Dr. Clarence Crawford, a Baptist minister, on April 9, 1945, signed at the bottom, “Harry S. Truman V.P.” In very good to fine condition, with scattered vertical creases, a few passing through portions of signature, with a partial separation to reverse. Anything signed by Truman as vice president is scarce, as he occupied that position for only ten weeks. By coincidence, a future commander in chief, Jimmy Carter and his wife would later attend a church service led by the recipient of this pass, Dr. Crawford. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
