Longtime and controversial Prime Minister of India (1917–1984), the first female leader of that country, who was assassinated by Sikh extremists. Uncommon ALS signed “Indira,” one page, both sides, 5 x 8, January 10, 1962. Letter to a friend. In part: “Just to say hello & to send greetings from your many friends in Delhi…I have been away from Delhi since the 7th of Sept.” On the reverse, Gandhi adds a brief postscript which reads, “I had taken this note over to Mr. Roy’s apartment when I found your lovely letter. Thank you. I. G.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds, pencil notations to bottom of reverse, and some scattered light edge toning. Gandhi is quite uncommon in handwritten correspondence.
