Charles Evans Hughes Supreme Court Autographs

Charles Evans Hughes was Governor of New York, U.S. Secretary of State and 11th Chief Justice of the Supreme Court between 1930 and 1941. The Hughes Supreme Court coincided with the Great Depression and Franklin D. Roosevelt’s presidency and was known for turning down many of Roosevelt’s New Deal policies. Some of the notable cases the Hughes Court handled include Near v. Minnesota, United States v. Butler and Cantwell v. Connecticut.

The following are some Charles Evans Hughes Supreme Court autographs we sold:

1936 Supreme Court Signatures

1936 Charles Hughes U.S. Supreme Court signed sheet. Ink signatures of all nine members of the Hughes Court on an off-white vellum slip. “Charles E. Hughes” signature, large and bold, is the first and biggest of all signatures on sheet. Other Supreme Court Justice signatures include Harlan F. Stone, Benjamin N. Cardozo, Louis D. Brandeis, Pierce Butler, J.C. McReynolds, Willis Van Devanter, Owen J. Roberts and Geo. [George] Sutherland. The Hughes Supreme Court, of course, presided over Roosevelt’s New Deal legislation; as Chief Justice, Hughes acted as conciliator between the progressive forces unleashed by the Depression and traditional conservative interpretation of the Constitution. In so doing, the Court set historic precedent on freedom of the press, labor law, limits of executive power and Social Security. Vertical vellum sheet, measuring 3.75″ x 8.25″, has a light bisecting horizontal fold not affecting any signatures. Sheet clean, black ink signatures bold. Fine condition. Sold for $980.
