Washington, D.C., 1878, Partially Issued/Cancelled Distillery Warehouse Internal Revenue Stamp, Black text with green border printed on blue paper, features a portrait of President Taylor at left. Issued by President Taft and features his signature underneath serial number. Document signed: "Wm H Taft" as Collector, 7x3 inches. William Howard Taft (September 15, 1857 – March 8, 1930) was the 27th president of the United States (1909–1913) and the tenth Chief Justice of the United States (1921–1930), the only person to have held both offices. Taft was elected president in 1908, the chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for re-election by Woodrow Wilson in 1912 after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate. In 1921, President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft to be chief justice, a position in which he served until a month before his death.
