Description

Harding declines seats to the opera offered by Baltimore’s mayor

TLS as president, one page, 6 x 8, White House letterhead, February 1, 1922. Letter to the mayor of Baltimore, William Broening. In part: “I want to…thank you for your consideration in proposing to place a box at the disposal of Mrs. Harding and myself during the appearance of the Chicago Opera Company in Baltimore…I do not think, however, it is practical to accept. There is a strong possibility that we shall be away from Washington for a few days at that particular time, and it would be very inconsiderate of your courtesy to even hint at an acceptance and then be obliged to decline at the last moment.” Matted and framed with an engraved portrait to an overall size of 20 x 15. In fine condition. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
