Vast collection of correspondence and other items from Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower to Caroline Walker of Washington D.C. Included in the collection are three TLSs from Dwight Eisenhower, all signed as president, “D. E.,” from 1954, 1958, and 1959 respectively, all one-page on White House letterhead. The letter from 1954 reads, “I apologize that I have not long before this acknowledged your birthday telegram. I haven’t been able to find a moment for myself since my return from Denver. Nonetheless, please know that I did receive it and am most appreciative of your thought of me.” All three are accompanied by their original mailing envelopes. Also included are 26 letters and cards from Mamie Doud Eisenhower, both ALSs and TLSs, as well as several greeting cards, many written from the White House. As well as two FDCs honoring Dwight Eisenhower, both signed by Mamie and two White House cards, each also signed by Mamie. Remainder of the items are letters from secretaries, invitations to the White House or other functions, place cards, RSVPs, and other items, including a telegram to Walker from the White House before a cruise, signed in type “Mamie and Ike.” In very good condition, with moderate toning to Dwight’s letters. An interesting collection from inside the White House.
