This legendary American museum official was a bona fide, Bernard Berenson-trained art historian; he served as first chief curator and second director of the National Gallery of Art, in which position he succeeded in bringing great attention and even greater masterpieces to this institution; among his published art studies are the 1974 memoir "Self-Portrait with Donors." Signed First Day Cover, 6½" X 3½", cancelled in Washington, DC on 17 September 1965 and with "First Day of Issue" boldly stamped. Fine. Single 5-cent "John Copley -- American Artist" stamp at upper right. No decorative cachet at left; no distracting recipient's name/address. Handsome signature of Walker in blue ballpoint at lower left, near the "sweet spot." Small portion of original transmittal envelope present.
