HOOVER, HERBERT C.
(1874 - 1964) 34th President of the United States whose attempts to reverse the course of the Great Depression led to his defeat at the polls by Franklin D. Roosevelt. T.L.S. on Department of Commerce letterhead, 1p. 4to., Washington, Mar. 9, 1921 to John Hays Hammond thanking him for his "…kind telegram of congratulation…". This was very likely upon his nomination as Secretary of Commerce by Warren G. Harding. Usual folds with a few marginal tears, mounted to another sheet, otherwise very good.
