<B>Charming Autograph Letter Signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt</B></I> A.L.S. <I>"Franklin D. Roosevelt"</B></I> on Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland letterhead, 1p., 7.25" x 10.5", <I>"Westport Point, Mass.",</B></I> Aug. 20, n.y., addressed to <I>"My dear Clarkson".</B></I> He writes, in large part: <I>"Many thanks for your nice thought of me in the matter of the Mayoralty campaign. However I am ever grateful that I have always been an upstate farmer & therefore can't take part in N.Y. City politics!"</B></I> Although undated, the letter clearly gives insight to FDR's already public position against the Tammany Hall rule that dominated the New York Democratic. A coy and witty response particularly ironic in reference to being an upstate farmer. The Roosevelt name was synonymous with wealth and prestige in all New York social circles. With a two small foxing spots, otherwise very clean and near fine. Tipped to a larger sheet.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
