[Taft, William Howard]. Ribbon-bound program from a 1909 dinner honoring President Taft. The dinner, held on the Steamer St. Paul while going down the Mississippi River, was well attended by state governors, with twenty of them signing the back pages of this program, and members of the Cabinet. The program opens with a very nice photograph of Taft and moves into the guest list, music list and hosts. The Business Men's League of St. Louis really knew how to throw a party. There is an ink smudge on the cover and some minor soil on the cover, but the overall condition is very good.
A memento from early in Taft's administration.
Estimated Value $50 - 100.
