1973rif. 145329Paris January 27 1973. The original pen used by Secretary of State William P. Rogers to sign the Vietnam Peace Agreement ending the Vietnam War Paris 27 January 1973. Sheaffer fountain pen with 14 karat gold tip housed in an adjustable gold pen holder wooden base brass hardware including etched plaque. The plaque reads "To the Association of the Bar of the City of New York / Pen used by Secretary of State William P. Rogers to Sign the Viet-Nam Peace Agreements / Paris January 27 1973." During his tenure as Secretary of State under President Nixon William P. Rogers was involved in multiple matters of foreign policy including negotiations leading up to the signing of the Paris Peace Accords in 1973 after years of negotiations and secret talks. On 27 January 1973 representatives of the South Vietnamese communist forces North Vietnam South Vietnam and the United States gathered in Paris to sign the Paris Peace Accords and officially end the United States' involvement in the Vietnam War. The ceasefire took effect the next day on January 28 1973 and the last U.S. troops left Vietnam in March 1973. In very good condition. A unique piece of world history. In 1955 conflict between North and South Vietnam began. Fearing the spread of communism in Southeast Asia the United States entered the war in the early 1960s providing financial aid military advisors and eventually combat troops in support of South Vietnam. As the conflict escalated and anti-war sentiment grew talks about ending United States military intervention began in 1968 proceeding for years until an agreement in 1973. Fighting reignited almost immediately after US departure and continued for two more years before the Fall of Saigon and the end of the war. Eric Caren proprietor of the most significant private collection of historical documents in the United States notes that this item "represented the most tragic element of the 1960s inspiring the collective rebellion on university campuses and the combined rights for women and Blacks that led to the most positive changes in the most interesting decade. There is rare and there is unique this pen is obviously both." unknown

Nixon used this personalized form letter for copies he sent to those he was close to. Shelved in Case 1 1/2. Thomas Hughes served as the Director of the Bureau of Intelligence and Research Now known as the Assistant Secretary of State for Intelligence and Research from April 28 1963 through August 25 1969 serving under Kennedy and Johnson and resigning under Nixon. He went on to serve as president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace from 1971-1991. Originally joining Washington as legislative counsel to Senator Hubert Humphrey in 1955 he worked with then Vice President Humphrey to compose a memorandum from Humphrey to President Johnson warning about the negative consequences of escalation and intensification of the war in Vietnam. From the memorandum dated Washington February 17 1965: "SUBJECT Vietnam. I would like to share with you my views on the political consequences of certain courses of action that have been proposed in regard to U.S. policy in Southeast Asia. I refer both to the domestic political consequences here in the United States and to the international political consequences." "In 1968 with an eye to history Hughes commissioned an independent "self-study" to evaluate the INR's intelligence efforts during the Vietnam War. Hughes was unaware at the time of the similar but more elaborate project to study the Pentagon's decisionmaking on Vietnam commissioned by Defense Secretary McNamara. Time magazine in 1971 mentioned the INR study and dubbed it the State Department's version of the Pentagon Papers. But Hughes's study remained classified until 2004.Hughes upon the publication of the State Department study of the INR and Vietnam assessed his and his bureau's role in these terms: ".we have the ironic satisfaction of knowing that most of our forecasts have been vindicated by history. We can only lament that while we were heeded we were unable to persuade sway or prevail when it came to the ultimate decisions." Smith Bruce L. R and Brookings Institution Press. 2021.
