PRESIDENT GRANT: 1921 - Deluxe souvenirs from 1935 congressional voyage

Product Description

Souvenir #1 is a twelve-page pax list with special silver foil covers embossed with the Seal of the United States of America. Printed on front is "The Congressional Party to the Philippine Commonwealth Government Inauguration at Manila, Philippine Islands, November Fifteenth, Nineteen Thirty-Five."

The passenger list is headlined by U.S. Vice President John Garner and Mrs. Garner, followed by ninety-four congressmen and their spouses. Also included are about fifty additional passengers.

Souvenir #2 is a special Captain's Dinner "menu". The covers are a textured thick stock with gold lettering. Apparently holding a menu was not the intent of this souvenir. Printed on the inside cover is "Congressional Party to the Philippine Commonwealth Government Inauguration, Manila 1935." Bound inside are four pages of fine paper with "Friends old & new". The original owner either had no friends or didn't bother with signatures as the pages are blank.

Manuel Quezon was elected president in 1935 and the U.S. delegation attended his inauguration in November 1935. There was a ten-year trial period with the Philippines gaining full independence in 1946.
