The last czar of Russia (born 1868) who reigned from 1894 until his abdication in 1917. In the wake of the Russian Revolution, Nicholas, Empress Alexandra, and their children were imprisoned and finally executed on July 17, 1918. Though the ultimate fate of the Romanovs—and the putative survival of Princess Anastasia in particular—became the stuff of legend, recent research has confirmed that the executions were indeed carried out, and that the remains were soaked in acid and burned. LS in Russian, one page both sides, 8.25 x 13, official letterhead, November 13, 1913. Letter of State sent to the newly elected Bolivian president Ismael Montes, as a gesture of gratitude and expressing his hopes for continued friendly relations between the two countries. Boldly signed at the conclusion in black ink by Nicholas. In fine condition, with trimmed paper loss to bottom lower left edge, as well as marginal binding holes, and intersecting storage folds. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
