Description

Franklin D. Roosevelt

DS, one page, 8 x 10.5, Navy Department letterhead, dated July 7, 1919. As Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Roosevelt writes to John W. Fulton, Second Lieutenant in the Marine Corps. on the subject of honorable discharge. In full: “1. By direction of the President, you are hereby honorably discharged from the United States Marine Corps. 2. Your home address is officially recorded as Bokeelia, Florida.” In very good condition, with scattered creasing and wrinkling, areas of soiling only lightly affecting the signature, a uniform shade of toning, two small tears at each end of a horizontal fold, a few sets of staple marks along the top border and corners, a couple of office stamps, and a small area of paper loss, none of which detract from the clean and clear signature of the 32nd president. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
