TLS as president, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, February 6, 1934. In a letter of thanks to actor Al Jolson, FDR writes, in full: “Thanks ever so much for that delightful birthday message you sent me. I appreciate indeed your thought of me.” Scattered light surface creasing and impressions, a section of toning running the length of the right edge, and the central horizontal fold only lightly affecting the remarkably bold and clean signature, otherwise fine condition. Called the “rare showbiz Republican,” Jolson publicly campaigned for and supported FDR in 1932. This quick response serves as a unique piece of correspondence tracing the ties of Hollywood and Washington.
