Description

Franklin D. Roosevelt

TLS, one page, 8.5 x 1, Roosevelt & O’Connor letterhead, March 17, 1927. Letter to Rear Admiral F. R. Harris, in full: “My congratulations to you on your new work, which I know will be extremely interesting to you and which you are eminently fitted for. I am writing direct to the comptroller to tell him that you are wholly qualified to act as Consulting Engineer in the transit situation. There will be no use in writing to the Governor as he has nothing whatsoever to do with the details of the transit situation in New York.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds (a vertical line passing through a single letter of the signature), and a paperclip impression and a pair of punch holes to the top edge. Accompanied by carbon copies of the letters Harris directed to Roosevelt. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA.
