Description

"Yesterday was a grand day for me. I hope you enjoyed it half as much as I did"

TLS as president signed “H. S. T.,” one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, July 2, 1952. Writing Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snyder, President Truman notes that he has “already employed an architect for the building I propose to build,” a reference to the Truman Library. In a 20-word handwritten postscript dated the next day, the president writes of the day they just spent at the dedication of two Arkansas dams: “Yesterday was a grand day for me. I hope you enjoyed it half as much as I did!” In fine condition, with two small blots to the last words of his postscript. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
