Description

Rare 'Friends of Barack Obama' check donating to the campaign committee of a fellow Illinois senator

Friends of Barack Obama check, 8.25 x 3, filled out in type and signed by Obama, payable to Friends of Dick Durbin for $500, September 27, 2002. In very fine condition.

Friends of Barack Obama was his official campaign committee; at the time he signed this check, Obama was preparing for his third straight election to the Illinois Senate, which he won for the newly configured 13th district unopposed on November 5, 2002. Also of note is the payee, the campaign committee for Dick Durbin, a fellow Illinois senator who introduced Obama on the final night of the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. Extremely rare in this format, this is only the second Barack Obama check we have offered.
