Title:
Franklin D. Roosevelt Authentic Signature Cut - 32nd President of the United States - PSA/DNA Certified and Encapsulated - Certification No. 85952774

Description:
An impressive authentic cut signature of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States, professionally authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA. The cut displays Roosevelt's distinctive handwritten signature, "Franklin D. Roosevelt," in dark ink across a printed signature line identified as "Applicant's Signature." Portions of printed text from the original document remain visible above and around the signature.

The signature cut is attractively presented against a black background beneath a color portrait of Roosevelt, creating a strong visual display. The entire presentation is permanently protected within a clear PSA holder. The PSA label identifies the piece as "CUT FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT PSA/DNA CERTIFIED AUTHENTIC AUTO" and bears certification number 85952774.

The surviving printed date field shows "19" but does not preserve enough information to establish the year of the original document. Accordingly, no specific date should be attributed to the signature based solely on the visible portion.

Historical Context:
Franklin D. Roosevelt served as the 32nd President of the United States and was elected to the presidency an unprecedented four times, in 1932, 1936, 1940, and 1944. His presidency encompassed two defining crises of the twentieth century: the Great Depression and World War II. During the Depression, his administration introduced the sweeping collection of relief, recovery, and reform measures known as the New Deal, including programs that reshaped the relationship between the federal government and the American public. 

Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, Roosevelt led the United States as Commander-in-Chief through most of World War II. He worked closely with the Allied powers and played an important role in shaping plans for the postwar international order, including the development of the organization that became the United Nations. Roosevelt died at Warm Springs, Georgia, on April 12, 1945, only weeks before victory in Europe. 

As the only American president elected to more than two terms, Roosevelt occupies a singular place in the history of the presidency. His unprecedented tenure later contributed to the adoption of the Twenty-second Amendment, which established constitutional limits on presidential elections. 

Authentication & Encapsulation:
This Franklin D. Roosevelt cut signature has been authenticated by PSA/DNA and designated an authentic autograph. It is professionally encapsulated in a tamper-evident PSA holder, providing both long-term protection and an immediately identifiable authentication record. The PSA certification number displayed on the holder is 85952774. The signature remains bold and readily legible within the presentation.

• Additional Documentation & Provenance: At buyer's request, Historical Autographs Gallery will include an additional "Historical Autographs Gallery Certificate" signed by our company founder Luke Pascal at no cost.

Closing Appeal:
A compelling presidential collectible, this piece combines an authentic Franklin D. Roosevelt signature with professional PSA/DNA authentication and an attractive portrait presentation. Roosevelt's extraordinary four-term presidency, leadership during the Great Depression and World War II, and enduring influence on American government make his autograph an important addition to collections devoted to American presidents, twentieth-century history, the New Deal, or World War II.
