Here is a Dewey Defeats Harry Truman signed photo we have sold in the past:
Dewey Defeats Truman Harry Truman Signed Photo Rez COA
“Dewey Defeats Truman” was an incorrect banner headline on the front page of the Chicago Daily Tribune (later Chicago Tribune) on November 3, 1948, the day after incumbent United States president Harry S. Truman won an upset victory over his opponent, Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York, in the 1948 presidential election. It was famously held up by Truman at a public appearance following his successful election, smiling triumphantly at the error.
Rare UPI press photo twice-signed by Harry Truman, showing the newly elected President holding up the famous “Chicago Daily Tribune” newspaper that erroneously proclaimed his defeat. Truman signs “Harry Truman” across the white newspaper, and again on his sleeve “Harry Truman”, where he also inscribes the photo. Upon the verso is the United Press-International stamp, transferring the photo to the Truman Library. A piece of paper from the Truman Library is also taped to the verso. Satin-finish silver gelatin photo measures 10″ x 8″. Mild buckling to lower portion and some fading to black ink signatures, otherwise near fine condition. An exceptionally rare photo as signed by Truman. With University Archives COA. Sold for $4,200.
