MALVINA THOMPSON SIGNED TYPED LETTER 1939 ELEANOR ROOSEVELT - $3K APR W/COA
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
This thoughtful letter, meticulously typed by Malvina "Tommy" Thompson (1893-1953), offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the White House during the tenure of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. As a pioneering figure in the East Wing staff, Thompson played a pivotal role as a private secretary and personal aide, breaking new ground by serving as the first staffer for a First Lady who was not a social secretary.
Dated June 20th, 1939, amidst the height of Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency, this letter carries the weight of historical significance. Typed on The White House letterhead stationary, it bears the official emblem of the presidency, underscoring its authenticity and importance. Additionally, the inclusion of the original stamped envelope adds to its authenticity and collectible value.
Expressing gratitude on behalf of Mrs. Roosevelt to a citizen named Miss Griffith, this letter exemplifies Thompson's secretarial skills and her integral role in facilitating communication between the First Lady and the American public. For collectors of political memorabilia and enthusiasts of American history, this letter serves as a splendid addition to any collection, offering a tangible link to the dynamic and influential Roosevelt era.
