Description: Ronald Reagan - Signed Photograph + COA measuring at approximately 8 x 9 3/4. Item is vintage. Good condition with a few minor edge dings. Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of the United States, served from 1981 to 1989. Born on February 6, 1911, in Tampico, Illinois, Reagan grew up in a modest family and attended Eureka College, where he studied economics and sociology. After graduation, he pursued a career in radio broadcasting before transitioning to Hollywood, where he became a well-known actor. Over the course of his Hollywood career, Reagan appeared in more than 50 films, and his work in the entertainment industry led him to become the president of the Screen Actors Guild. During his tenure with the Guild, Reagan became increasingly involved in political issues, particularly labor relations and anti-communism. Reagan's political career began in earnest when he was elected Governor of California in 1966, a position he held for two terms. As governor, he gained national attention for his strong stance against student protests, his efforts to reform the welfare system, and his advocacy for fiscal conservatism. Despite two unsuccessful attempts to secure the Republican nomination for president in 1968 and 1976, Reagan's persistence paid off when he won the presidency in 1980, defeating the incumbent, Jimmy Carter, in a landslide victory. Reagan's presidency is perhaps best known for his economic policies, often referred to as "Reaganomics." These policies centered on reducing taxes, deregulating industries, cutting government spending, and controlling inflation in an effort to stimulate economic growth. While these measures helped to revive the American economy in the early 1980s, they also contributed to significant budget deficits. In addition to his domestic policies, Reagan played a crucial role in the final stages of the Cold War. He adopted a firm stance against the Soviet Union, famously describing it as the "Evil Empire," and oversaw a significant increase in defense spending. Reagan's approach, which included both military buildup and diplomatic efforts, is credited with contributing to the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Ronald Reagan left office in 1989 with high approval ratings, and his legacy as a transformative figure in American politics endures. He passed away on June 5, 2004, but remains a significant and influential figure in both American history and conservative ideology.
