Interesting to have a Richard Nixon card in a Topps set. I know he was mentioned in Fallout 2.
It's too bad that the Fallout universe did not better flesh out the key government figures for pre-War as canon. All we know for the President of the U.S. is that Fallout calls him "The Last President." Fallout 3 had John Henry Eden as an in-game "president," which was a great part of the game. It also had the museum that could've and should've helped build the divergence timeline better. I see Fallout 76 fleshed out some wartime political figures, so I may need to work in some historical figures.
And, of course, I can make up my own history based on "findings" in the Boston Public Library. Dusting off pre-War books and restoring as much as possible the burnt and destroyed books could be a huge portion of fleshing out my universe more. Or a new Fallout game can come out somewhere around 2030 and actually have some of the pre-War canon intact.
