Title:
Harry & Bess Truman Dual-Signed Autograph Card – PSA/DNA Certified Authentic Auto (Encapsulated #85641659)

Description:
Offered here is a clean and elegant dual-signed autograph card by President Harry S. Truman and First Lady Bess W. Truman, authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA. The cream-colored card features a pre-printed sentiment reading:

“I am pleased to comply with your request for an autograph.”

Beneath this line, both Harry and Bess Truman have boldly signed in black ink, their autographs appearing side by side in excellent condition. The card remains clean and free of major blemishes or toning, beautifully preserved in PSA’s tamper-evident holder.

Historical Context:
Harry S. Truman served as the 33rd President of the United States from 1945 to 1953, ascending to the office following the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Truman is remembered for making some of the most consequential decisions in American history, including authorizing the use of atomic bombs to end World War II, leading the U.S. through the early years of the Cold War, and desegregating the armed forces.

Bess Truman, known for her privacy and strength, was First Lady during these critical postwar years. She rarely made public appearances, and signed items from her—especially alongside her husband—are considerably scarce.

This card would have been sent out in response to autograph requests during Truman’s post-presidency years in Independence, Missouri, where he and Bess lived a modest life after leaving the White House. The clear, matching signatures represent both their continued connection to the public and the enduring admiration for Truman’s plainspoken leadership.
