Harry S. Truman, 1884-1972. 33rd President of the United States, 1945-1953. Typed Letter Signed, Harry S. Truman, one page, quarto, on personal stationery, Independence, Missouri, May 13, 1958. With original envelope.
Former President Truman offers to sign a copy of his memoirs for a book company representative. He says that he "more than appreciated" the man's letter and writes that if he "cared to bring your set of the Memoirs to the Carlyle Hotel . . . I would be very happy to inscribe them for you."
As this letter shows, Truman cordially signed autographs. He had a habit, although he did not universally follow it, of signing only the first of the two volumes of his memoirs.
This letter has a beautiful black fountain pen signature. The letter is in fine to very fine condition, with a small stain at the lower right and a pencil notation in the upper right corner. The accompanying envelope is soiled but overall is in fine condition.
Unframed.
