TLS as president, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, February 12, 1941. Letter sending birthday wishes to Reverend John Hunter in New Jersey. In part, “I cannot allow your birthday to pass without sending you this word of greeting. As the years pass, bringing their cares and anxieties, the bonds of affection which hold us to old friends grow stronger than ever. This is just to assure you that I am grateful for your friendship through all the years and wanted you to know how much it has meant and does mean to me.” In fine condition, with some scattered light toning to top half of letter, and a couple light creases, with nothing affecting the clean and bold signature. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
