The signature is neatly centered on the card, which bears period pencil notations identifying George as an economist and referencing his influential work Progress and Poverty (1879). A desirable autograph from one of the most influential economic thinkers of the nineteenth century.

Near fine condition.

Henry George (1839-1897) was an American economist, journalist, and social reformer whose ideas profoundly influenced economic and political thought during the late nineteenth century. He achieved international fame with the publication of Progress and Poverty in 1879, a work that examined the paradox of increasing wealth alongside persistent poverty in rapidly industrializing societies. George became best known for advocating a “single tax” on land values, arguing that the economic value derived from land should benefit society as a whole. His writings influenced reform movements around the world and were studied by political leaders, economists, and social activists for generations.
