Edith Wilson was the second wife of President Woodrow Wilson. His first wife Ellen Wilson, who had served as First Lady from 1913 until her death in 1914, had been honored on the prior release of the series. Edith Wilson became his second wife in 1915 and served as First Lady until the completion of his second Presidential term in 1921.
On the reverse is the image of Mrs. Wilson’s supporting her husband who had suffered a massive stroke while in office. Her hand rests upon his, while holding a cane.
