Title:
Lyndon B. Johnson Inscribed Cut Signature ("Best Wishes") | PSA/DNA Certified Authentic Auto | Certification #85896240

Description:
Original cut signature of Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973), the 36th President of the United States, featuring the closing inscription "Best Wishes," above his bold autograph in dark ink. The signature is penned on a cream-colored paper cut, likely removed from a signed letter, photograph, or presentation piece. Johnson's distinctive, flowing signature is exceptionally bold and well-centered, making for an attractive display. The lower edge of the cut exhibits moderate age toning, consistent with vintage paper, while the inscription remains clearly visible. The reverse is blank and shows natural aging. The autograph has been professionally authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA for permanent preservation.

Historical Context:
Lyndon B. Johnson served as the 36th President of the United States from 1963 to 1969, assuming office following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy before winning election in his own right in 1964. His administration transformed American domestic policy through the Great Society initiatives, resulting in landmark legislation such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Medicare, and Medicaid. Although his presidency is also remembered for the escalation of the Vietnam War, Johnson remains one of the most consequential presidents of the twentieth century. Inscribed examples of his autograph, especially those incorporating a personal closing such as "Best Wishes," offer greater character and desirability than a signature alone, reflecting a more personal interaction with the recipient.

Authentication & Encapsulation:
The autograph has been authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA as Authentic Auto. The PSA/DNA certification number is 85896240, as displayed on the encapsulation label. The tamper-evident PSA holder ensures the autograph's authenticity while providing long-term protection and display quality.

• 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:
Combining a bold presidential signature with the handwritten inscription "Best Wishes," this authenticated Lyndon B. Johnson cut signature possesses added warmth and collector appeal beyond a standard autograph. Professionally authenticated by PSA/DNA and housed in a secure slab, it represents an excellent opportunity to acquire an attractive and historically significant piece from one of America's most influential twentieth-century presidents.
