A powerful political collectible featuring the August 25, 1980 cover of Newsweek magazine, boldly signed by both President Jimmy Carter and Senator Edward M. “Ted” Kennedy. The cover captures the iconic handshake between Carter and Kennedy at the Democratic National Convention following a bitter primary contest, with the headline reading “Now for The Hard Part.”

Carter signed above his image, while Kennedy signed across his collar. The signed magazine cover measures approximately 8 by 10.75 inches and is elegantly matted, housed in a frame measuring approximately 15 by 17.5 inches overall.

A striking display from a pivotal moment in modern Democratic Party history, signed by two of its most influential figures.

Jimmy Carter (October 1, 1924 – December 29, 2024) was an American politician and humanitarian who served as the 39th president of the United States from 1977 to 1981. A member of the Democratic Party, he served from 1963 to 1967 in the Georgia State Senate and from 1971 to 1975 as the 76th governor of Georgia. Carter is the longest-lived president in U.S. history and the first to live to 100 years of age.
