Autograph cut from former President of Mexico, Valentin Gomez Farias
Farias was a Mexican physician and liberal politician who became president of Mexico twice, first from 1833 to 1834, during the period of the First Mexican Republic, and again from 1846 to 1847, during the Mexican–American War. FarÌas was elected to his first term in March 1833 along with Antonio LÛpez Santa Anna, with whom he would share the presidency. Both Congress and the administration elected during his term were notably Liberal, and pursued curtailing the political power of the Mexican Army and Catholic Church. Measures to prosecute members of the previous, conservative and autocratic presidency of Anastasio Bustamante were also carried out, but GÛmez FarÌas sought to moderate them. Conservative revolts against these policies flared up, and eventually GÛmez FarÌas' own vice-president Santa Anna switched sides and led his deposing in April 1834. Cut measures 2"x 4" and is in nice condition. Please see photos for more details. [ Mexico
