DavidLloyd George (1863-1945) British Liberal politician and statesman, Prime Minister at the head of a wartime coalition government between the years 1916–22 Leader of the Liberal Party from 1926–31. During a long tenure of office, mainly as Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lloyd George was a key figure in the introduction of many reforms, which laid the foundations of the modern welfare state. He is best known as the highly energetic Prime Minister who guided Britain and its Empire through the First World War to victory over Germany and her allies. He was a major player at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 that reordered the world after the Great War. Lloyd George is regarded as having made a greater impact on British public life than any other 20th century leader, thanks to his leadership of the war drive, his post-war role in reshaping Europe, and his introduction of Britain's social welfare system before the war. This is a fine, very early signature in black fountain pen ink on a slip of paper (5.5" x 1") trimmed from a House of Commons pass (Wednesday, 27 February 1907). In very good condition. Interesting to see the contrast between this very early signature form and the later signatures, which became ever more angular and spiky!
