President Gerald Ford Inscribed and Signed White House Vignette Card for Bicentennial of the Constitution

Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr. (July 14, 1913 - December 26, 2006) was the 38th President of the United States (1974-1977), and is, to date, the only person to occupy that office who had been elected neither to the presidency nor the vice-presidency. Ford was the first person appointed to the vice presidency under the terms of the 25th Amendment, and, after serving as the 40th Vice President (1973-1974) of the United States for less than a year, became President upon Richard Nixon's resignation. Prior to 1973, he served for over eight years as the Republican Minority Leader of the House of Representatives; he was first elected to Congress in 1948 from Michigan's 5th congressional district.
