Description

FDR’s trade pact with the King of Sweden

DS as president, one page both sides, 10 x 13, June 12, 1935. President Roosevelt approves “a Trade Agreement between the President of the United States of America and His Majesty the King of Sweden.” Boldly signed at the conclusion by Roosevelt and countersigned by Secretary of State Cordell Hull. The crisply embossed affixed white paper seal and patriotic ribbon remain intact. Headed “Duplicate,” the document is enclosed in a period folder annotated on the front in another hand, “Duplicate exchange copy of instrument of approval and confirmation executed under belief that the original exchange copy had been lost in transit to Stockholm. Original was found.” In fine condition. Originates from the estate of a gentleman who drafted official documents and treaties for the government and couriered them to the president himself. In the course of his career he was able to retain several examples and duplicates of these scarce documents. A desirable foreign relations document signed under unusual circumstances. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
