8 X 10.5 TLS on FBI stationary dated February 6, 1957 and signed J. E. Hoover by Hoover(d72). He signed with black fountain pen. Hoover was the first Director of The Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States. Appointed director of the Bureau of Investigation—predecessor to the FBI—in 1924, he was instrumental in founding the FBI in 1935, where he remained director until his death in 1972 at age 77. Hoover is credited with building the FBI into a larger crime-fighting agency, and with instituting a number of modernizations to police technology, such as a centralized fingerprint file and forensic laboratories. He became a very controversial figure in his later years. Comes with money back guarantee if not satisfied. Low starting bid. Will ship international.
