Pamphlet twice signed “Andrew Johnson,” probably as US Senator, 20 pages, 5.75 x 9. A reprint from the Banker’s Magazine and Statistical Register for January 1859. Johnson has signed on the blank front wrap and again on the back wrap, which bears a printed ad for A Cyclopedia of Commerce and Commercial Navigation.
Johnson was Chairman of the Senate Committee to Audit and Control the Contingent Expenses from 1859–1861. The reprinted article, “New Views of the Currency Question,” was written by John Dix, Secretary of the Treasury from January 15, 1861, until Lincoln’s appointee, Salmon P. Chase, was sworn in on March 6, 1861. A former US Senator from New York, Dix had served as Assistant Treasurer of the United States and Treasurer of the Assay Office at New York under Pres. Franklin Pierce from 1853–1854. Nearly a decade after the original printing of the article, converting paper into specie was a major part of Johnson’s 1867 State of the Union address. In very good condition, with light vertical crease (lightly touching last name of both signatures), soiling and creasing, and a few small tears.
