MacArthur Autograph Quote Signed
“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
Autograph quotation signed by General Douglas MacArthur which, while reading it, rouses the immense feelings of gravity and joy that must have accompanied every American citizen on 2 September 1945, the day of the Japanese surrender after which MacArthur delivered his radio speech to the American people. His speech began with the words in this handwritten quote: ''Today the guns are silent. A great tragedy has ended. A great victory has been won.'' Additionally signed ''Douglas MacArthur''. Ink quote appears at the top of a sheet that has a circular brown stain on the bottom, easily matted out. MacArthur also seems to incorrectly spell tragedy as ''tradeg'', though not obvious from his handwriting. In very good condition, accompanied by a COA from PSA/DNA.
