Description

Franklin D. Roosevelt

TLS, one page, 8 x 11, State of New York Executive Chamber letterhead, August 8, 1932. A letter to DNC delegate John Utterback. In part: “Entirely by mischance your friendly letter and the formal invitation which it contained were buried in a mass of congratulatory mail which did not require an immediate response. I want to apologize for my apparent neglect, and to assure you that I deeply appreciate the action taken by the Board of Directors of the Eastern Maine State Fair in inviting me to be their guest… Such matters which require my presence here have made it impossible for me to plan ahead, and so I am afraid I must decline the invitation.” In very good condition, with scattered creasing, wrinkling, soiling, and toning, and some slight brushing to the signature. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
