American sex educator, nurse, birth control activist, and the founder of the American Birth Control League (1879-1966). Three items signed by Margaret Sanger: a vintage glossy 4 x 5 portrait, signed in fountain pen; a TLS from 1951, mentioning that she is "working on the possibility of a Conference in India for next year"; and a TLS from 1955, expressing her "hope the pneumonia gets the 'outs' with one of the miracle drugs." In overall fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope for the 1951 letter.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
