Historical Context:
William McKinley (1843–1901) served as president from 1897 until his assassination in 1901. His administration presided over a transformative era in American history marked by rapid economic growth, the Spanish-American War, and the annexation of overseas territories, including Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. McKinley’s leadership during this period solidified the U.S. as a rising global power.

White House cards were used as formal autograph stationery by presidents from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries.
