King of England, later Duke of Windsor. The eldest son of George V and Queen Mary, Edward grew up in fearful awe of both his strict, remote parents and his royal destiny. Though popular with his subjects for his unpretentious manner and concern for social problems, the king was inwardly troubled. Seeking the affection and understanding denied him by his upbringing, he found an American divorcée, Wallis Simpson, and chose to renounce the throne he held for less than a year in order to marry “the woman I love.” Ballpoint signatures, “Edward Duke of Windsor” and “Wallis Duchess of Windsor,” on an off-white 5.5 x 3.5 card, embossed at the top with the coat of arms. Accompanied by a pre-printed message sending compliments from the Duke and Duchess’s private secretary and the original mailing envelope. In excellent condition. R&R COA.
