Description

“Peggy” Mitchell, a near and dear supporter, sends accolades to the Atlanta Red Cross chapter chairman

TLS signed “Peggy Mitchell Marsh,” one page, 3.75 x 5, December 21 [no year]. Mitchell writes to Dr. Boland, Chairman of the Atlanta chapter of the American Red Cross, where Mitchell was a volunteer during World War II. In full: “I have just read about the action of the Phi Beta Kappa Associates and I congratulate you. It makes your friends here at home feel very good to know that people in far-off places have learned the fine things about you that your own people have known for these many years.” In very good condition, with professional restoration to paper, trimmed edges, and subtle overall haloing to signature. The association of Margaret Mitchell with Dr. Frank Boland may have begun at the Atlanta Chapter of the Red Cross as they began preparations for World War II in 1939. One of the biggest supporters of the Atlanta Chapter during wartime was author Margaret Mitchell, known as “Peggy” by her many friends in the Red Cross and elsewhere. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
