Earl Warren –Engraved vignette of the Supreme Court on 8 x 6 card stock signed “Earl Warren Chief Justice 9/30/63”. There is some light, uneven toning from what appears to be contact with other paper in storage rather than sunlight from display.
Warren is not common in Supreme Court cards or these vignettes. This is a particularly desirable example since he dated it and added his title. Warren signed this during the last quiet days he would have for the next year. The 1963-1964 Court term began the following week and less than one year later, on Sept. 24, 1964, he would present President Johnson the results of the Warren Commission on the Kennedy assassination. The Court term was not calm that year with some major decisions such as New York Times v. Sullivan (First Amendment and the press) and some Equal Protection and reapportionment cases such as Reynolds v. Sims.
