    $29.95

    This image features Governor Hiram Johnson of California, who played a significant role in the political landscape of the early 20th century. Serving as governor from 1911 to 1917, Johnson was a key figure in the progressive movement, advocating for reforms that aimed to reduce the influence of political machines and corporate interests on government. His tenure marked a time of significant change in California, as he pushed for initiatives that strengthened workers rights, expanded direct democracy through ballot measures, and improved public services.

Notably, Johnson was instrumental in the creation of the California Railroad Commission, which regulated utility and transport companies, reflecting his commitment to consumer protection and fair practices. His policies laid the groundwork for many modern reforms in California, influencing how the state approached issues like labor relations and public accountability in governance.

    This depiction serves as an important historical record, illustrating the leadership and vision of one of Californias prominent political figures during a pivotal era. Through his efforts, Johnson helped shape legislative practices that would resonate far beyond his time in office, marking him as an influential leader in American politics.
