This lot features 48 signed Governors photos. These autographed items were obtained between 1980-2003 as part of a middle school social studies project. Teacher Doug Iscovitz and his class would write to various interesting/famous people throughout the United States and many of them responded by sending back signed photos and letters, among other things. The vast majority signed these items themselves. On rare occasions, they would send stamped (or secretarial signed) items, but the vast majority signed these items themselves and many even added a special note or inscription.
