DS, signed “Huey P. Long,” one page both sides, 9.5 x 15, September 25, 1928. A $5000 “Certificate of Indebtedness of the State of Louisiana for Confederate Veterans and their Widows.” In part: “This certifies that the State of Louisiana promises to pay to bearer the sum of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) on the 15th day of February, 1929, together with interest thereon at the rate of five per centime annum, payable at maturity of this certificate; both principal and interest being payable in gold coin of the United States of America of the present standard weight and fineness." In fine condition, with one horizontal fold and two horizontal creases, one affecting the top of signature, mild uniform toning, foxing to upper right corner, cancellation holes to bottom, and some spreading to signature. An interesting link between Long’s populist policies and the men who fought against progressive reform in the century prior.
