Parks and dated January 31, March 31, and April 30, 1980, during her tenure as a congressional aide to Representative John Conyers. Issued by the U.S. Treasury and marked “Not Negotiable – Do Not Cash,” the documents include detailed payroll information such as gross pay, deductions, and employment contributions.

Parks at her Detroit, Michigan residence, providing direct historical association with the civil rights leader’s post-movement public service career. Condition is consistent with age; the documents show expected toning yet remain clear and legible. Please see photos for additional details. | Dimensions (each): 3.25 x 7.25 in |
