TLS, one page, 6 x 7, personal letterhead, July 27, 1932. Letter to a woman in Maine. In full: “You are indeed right in your statement that President Roosevelt’s father was the only Republican of his generation. Before that the Roosevelt family were Democrats, but like all Northerners during the period of the Civil War they voted for Lincoln. His was the only branch of the family that remained Republican. I admire your courage in standing your ground, as one Democrat among so many Republicans.” In very good condition, with scattered soiling and toning, and Roosevelt’s signature a few shades light, but still legible. RRAuction COA.
