WENDELL L. WILLKIE LETTER TO TRACY HARRIET BURDICK 1940 - $4K APPRAISAL VALUE!
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
This exquisite letter, dating back to the 1940s, bears the signature of Wendell L. Willkie, making it a rare and valuable piece of history. Willkie, a renowned attorney celebrated for his work in utility cases, penned this missive, likely in response to a friend, Tracy Harriet Burdick of Springfield, Massachusetts, on November 25, 1940. It's worth noting that Willkie actually ran as a Republican candidate against the Democratic incumbent Franklin D. Roosevelt, in the 1940 election.
While it's plausible that this letter could have been prompted by condolences or support during the election, it's equally possible that it represents a typical exchange between friends. Notably, the recipient is addressed as Mr. Tracy Harriet, hinting at the ambiguity of Tracy's gender, which adds an intriguing element to this historical artifact. Despite being approximately 85 years old, this document remains remarkably well-preserved, serving as a tangible connection to Willkie's legacy. Born in 1892, Willkie passed away at the age of 52 in 1944, leaving behind a lasting imprint on American politics.
