TLS as president signed “RN,” one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, April 19, 1971. Letter to Earl Mazo, author of Richard Nixon: A Political and Personal Portrait. In full: “The beautifully bound and illustrated copy of ‘The Haggadah,’ which you and your friend, Lou Poller, bought for me in Jerusalem, is a treasured edition to my personal library. I am most grateful for your kindness in presenting me with this sacred book of the Jewish faith, and I hope you will express my appreciation to Mr. Poller for his generosity as well. With kindest personal regards.” In fine condition. The Haggadah is a sacred book that tells the story of how God, after punishing the Egyptians with ten plagues, freed the Jews from slavery, and ordered Moses to lead them to the Promised Land. This biblical story is celebrated every year in the week-long holiday of Passover. In 1971, Passover was celebrated April 10-16.
