Description

Bertrand Russell

TLS, one page, 8 x 11.75, Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation letterhead, July 16, 1964. Letter to Mr. A. Wiren, director of development at Suffolk College of Adelphi University. In part: “I should like to bring your attention to the work of the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation…It is our hope that we shall be able to secure very widespread financial support in the form of covenants of a set amount…I am confident that we shall advance quickly towards the achievement of our more ambitious aims. I hope you can assist this and contribute.” Scattered creases and a rusty paperclip mark to the top edge, otherwise fine condition. Russell established this foundation in 1964 to continue his philosophical work in the areas of peace, social justice, and human rights, with a specific focus on the dangers of nuclear war. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
