Gerald R. Ford autographed souvenir typed statement printed on official stationery bearing the Presidential seal, affirming the findings of the Warren Commission regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The text reiterates the Commission’s unanimous 1964 conclusions that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and that no evidence of a foreign or domestic conspiracy was found. Ford further states that he endorsed these conclusions at the time and continues to fully agree with them as the sole surviving member of the Warren Commission. The document is signed by Ford in blue ink and dated December 6, 1999, making this a late-life reaffirmation of one of the most consequential investigations in American history.

Fine condition.

Gerald R. Ford (1913–2006) served as the 38th President of the United States and was the only individual to become both Vice President and President without being elected to either office. Prior to his presidency, Ford was a longtime Congressman from Michigan and a member of the Warren Commission, appointed to investigate the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. His continued public defense of the Commission’s findings remained a defining and often debated aspect of his historical legacy.

A compelling and authoritative signed statement directly linking a U.S. President to the enduring controversy surrounding the Warren Commission, highly desirable for collectors of presidential autographs and JFK-assassination material.
