Description: Popular Michigan politician and senator (1943-1954); ambassador to the Philippines. Signature and title ("Judge US Court of Military App. / Washington, D.C.") with date (1967 May 17) on a special heavy stock 5" X 3" card. Fine. With original envelope. Accompanied by a choice, original vintage 10" X 8"news agency photograph (International News Photo). Near fine. Issued in 1947, this informal glossy shot depicts eight "weary, but smiling" legislators walking down the steps of the Capitol building, among them Ferguson, Claude Pepper, John Sparkman, Howard McGrath and other noted politicos of the day. Printed caption notes, "The 80th Congress Ended Its History Making First Session Today, Finally Adjourning at 3:49 AM EDT, More Than Three Hours After the House Had Quite to Go Home.." Itself a scarce and desireable image. .
