- A signed photograph of Nelson Mandela, signed as president on 26/05/1999
Nelson Mandela (1918-2013) was a South African politician, anti-apartheid revolutionary and philanthropist, who spent his life battling racial injustice.
He spent 27 years in prison for fighting apartheid and opposing the South African government, and was initially labelled a terrorist by some Western governments.
Mandela was finally released from jail in 1990 and helped negotiate the end of apartheid, for which he was awarded the Nobel Peace prize in 1993 along with President F. W. de Klerk.
In 1994 he was then elected President in the country's first multiracial general election, and served as the head of state until 1999.
A 10 x 8 inch signed photograph of Nelson Mandela, wearing his familiar Madiba silk shirt.
Mandela has signed and dated the photograph in black marker.
So timely: signed by Mandela while president of South Africa - just three weeks before he stepped down.
In excellent condition.
