We published this portrait of Ronald Reagan just over a year ago.
One of our dealers, Sandy Meyer, saw fit to do something unique with it. Not only is Reagan a personal hero, but there is also a special family connection for her. Her father use to shoe Ronald Reagan's horses for him and always spoke very highly of him. She took it upon herself to add to this truly iconic piece with a leather matting that is engraved with several of Reagan's famous quotes.
Honoring President Reagan
Here is a close up of one of the twelve quotes surrounding the portrait.
You will also notice that in each of the four corners it reads "In God We Trust."
other quotes include:
"Democracy is worth dying for, because it is the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man."
"There is no institution more vital to our nation's survival than the American family."
"Mr. Gorbechev, tear down this wall!"
"Government's first duty is to protect the people, not to run their lives."
"There are no easy answers, but there are simple answers. We must have the courage to know what is morally right."
"I have always believed that America is strongest and freest and happiest when it is truest to the wisdom of it's founders."
"While I take inspiration from the past like most Americans, I live for the future."
"Don't let anyone tell you that America's best days are behind her- that the American Spirit has been vanquished. We've seen her triumph too often in our own lives to stop believing in her now."
