Reform rabbi and Zionist leader (1875–1949). Five TLSs, three signed “Stephen S. Wise,” and two signed “Wise,” dated between 1919 and 1924. Wise comforts the grieving, discusses a new synagogue, and responds to an autograph request. One letter, in part: “Loss and separation have their place in the scheme of human life just as truly as joy in the presence of the loved.” In another letter, he references Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. In overall very good to fine condition, with various intersecting folds, creases, toning, and foxing.
