Item Details
Description
Lech Walesa (1943- ) Polish union activist. Walesa became leader of the Solidarity trade union in 1980. In 1983 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. He continued to direct the outlawed union until it received legal recognition in 1988. Solidarity won an overwhelming victory in free elections in June 1989, and after Walesa refused to form a coalition government with the communists, the Parliament was forced to accept a Solidarity-led government. In 1990 he won Poland's first direct presidential election by a landslide, and he helped guide Poland into a free-market economy. Two signed items: first day of issue postal cover with the Paderewski commemorative and cachet and a 4†x 6†color photograph.
