Bess and Margaret Truman Signatures
<B>Bess and Margaret Truman Signatures.</B></I> A signature lot that hails back to simpler times when a heartfelt request for an autograph was usually obliged no matter how important, busy, rich, powerful or famous the personage was. Included is an envelope with “<I>Bess W. Truman</B></I>” signed vertically at the left margin of the envelope. The envelope is postmarked Washington, D.C. and dated April 13, 1952. Additionally there is a White House autograph card signed “<I>Best Wishes Margaret Truman</B></I>”. Accompanying both signatures is a letter on White House letterhead, dated May 16, 1952, from Mrs. Truman's secretary, Reathel Odum, which reads in part: “<I>Miss Truman is very glad to give you her autograph for your grandson's collection, and the enclosed card carries with it her best wishes to the little boy.</B></I>” The original mailing envelope is included. All items are in very good or better condition. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
