Great Presidential Wit Appraisal

Signed First Edition of 'Great Presidential Wit' by Bob Dole (Easton Press)

This item is a limited edition, leather-bound first edition of the book 'Great Presidential Wit', published by The Easton Press. The image shows the signature page, which features an authentic hand-signed signature by former U.S. Senator and presidential candidate Bob Dole in blue ink. This specific copy is hand-numbered as '930 of 1,300', indicating its status as part of a restricted print run. The page is printed on high-quality, acid-neutral archival paper, typical of Easton Press's luxury book standards. It includes the official Easton Press 'Signed First Edition' circular seal at the top and the company's script logo at the bottom. The page is framed by a classic double-line black border. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible foxing, yellowing, or paper tears; the ink of the signature is sharp without significant fading. Easton Press books are known for high-end craftsmanship, including 22kt gold accents on the spine (though not visible here), silk moiré endpapers, and a sewn-in satin ribbon bookmark. This volume likely dates to the original publication window around 2001.
