Partially completed colour painting on cream cotton cloth, the face and small portion of the upper section of his cap are finished, the remaining portrait is in pencil only, 43 x 44cm. Lightly creased from folding, light staining, a few marks but overall in good condition. In this portrait of General Douglas MacArthur, he is depicted wearing a military cap with pencil outlined badge, gazing into the distance with a look of determination. The work bears no title or signature, but the facial features unmistakably resemble those of the General. Although he is not shown with his iconic corn cob pipe, the likeness to Douglas MacArthur is clear and compelling.

A unique collection of signatures including General Douglas MacArthur, Jean MacArthur, Major Gen. Courtney Whitney, Arthur MacArthur IV (MacArthur's son), and their beloved Chinese nanny, Loh Chui ("Ah Cheu"). Ah Cheu, whose legal name was Loh Chui, was the Cantonese nanny who helped raise Arthur MacArthur IV (MacArthur's only child), and accompanied them during the March 1942 escape from Corregidor-a decision he later defended on the grounds that she had been with his son "since Arthur's birth" and would likely have been killed if left behind. She is also dramatized on screen as "Ah Cheu" in the 1977 film MacArthur. Signed.

Douglas MacArthur on the front pastedown. When General MacArthur was relieved from his command in 1951 by President Harry Truman, he returned to the United States as a hero. He addressed a joint session of Congress, where he famously said that "old soldiers never die; they just fade away." But MacArthur had no intention of fading away. He was quickly mentioned as a candidate for the 1952 Republican presidential nomination, but on his speaking tour of the United States, it became apparent that MacArthur was more interested in settling scores with Truman than presenting a positive vision for the future. This book was an attempt to correct that public image, but by the time of its publication, it was too late. He endorsed Robert Taft for president in 1952. Signed.
