Little Rock Nine: Elizabeth Eckford Signed Oversized Photograph with Handwritten Essay Large satin-finish 20 x 13.25 photo of Elizabeth Eckford, age 15, being pursued by a mob, with Hazel Massery directly behind, at Little Rock Central High School on the first day of the school year, September 4, 1957, signed below in silver ink by Eckford, who adds an extensive handwritten essay on the historic event: “I am one of the Little Rock Nine, a group of African-American teens who, in 1957, were the first black students ever to attend classes at the previously all-white Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas. The integration came as a result of Brown versus Board of Education decided by the nation's highest court in 1954. My ordeal was captured by press photographers on the morning of September 4, 1957. As I walked toward the school I saw Arkansas National Guard soldiers surrounding the grounds. They opened up and made space for white students to pass through. When I approached the soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder to bar me. I walked further and stopped where I could see another sidewalk leading to the school. This time the state troops crossed rifles to block me. The crowd across the street was angrily shouting. Ahead I saw the main entrance in the middle of that two block expanse. Now a soldier directed me to go across the street where the demonstrators were. When I stepped out into the street an angry mob started following and screaming insults. Photographers were in front of me walking backwards. Someone yelled 'Get a rope. Drag her over to the tree! Let's hang her!' Other voices cursed and threatened. I looked for help. When I approached an elderly woman who had a kind face, she spat on me. The mob followed me to the bus stop where two middle-aged white reporters tried to comfort me, saying don't let them see you cry. When one reporter embraced me across my shoulder, the crowd's anger rose increased fury.” In very fine condition. Accompanied by an image of Eckford at the time of signing.
