Three items: a satin-finish 6.25 x 8.25 full-length portrait of Queen Mary of Teck, affixed to its original 8.75 x 11.75 mount, signed on the mount in fountain pen, “Mary R, 1950”; a TLS from Richard Nixon signed “Dick,” Office of the Vice President letterhead, July 26, 1956, in part: “Many thanks for your letter of July 19, in which you reported on some of the conversations had between the U.S. Attorneys who were here recently in Washington and before whom I spoke”; a TQS on an off-white 5.5 x 3.5 card, signed in fountain pen, “Arthur H. Compton.” Quote reads, in part: “We are rapidly moving toward the condition under which the only stable life is that of a unified world community. Our economic interdependencies are already intricate. It is largely outworn tradition which prevails the realization now of world political unity.” Teck photo is also signed at the top in pencil by the photographer, Henry Wrightson. In overall fine condition, with the signature light but legible and a small surface impression to background of Teck photo. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
