In full: “Mrs. Clemens & I thought that maybe these books of mine might come handy some time or other when times are slack & nothing else going on, & so we beg to offer them to you with our very best wishes & heartiest congratulations.” Central horizontal and vertical fold, a mild shade of toning, and some light corner creases, otherwise fine condition. Jones served for 30 years as United States Senator from Nevada. He made a fortune in silver mining and was a co-founder of the town of Santa Monica, California.
