Mayor of Jerusalem (1911–2007) from 1965–1993. Much of the face of modern Jerusalem is due to Kollek’s efforts, earning him the unofficial title of “the greatest builder of Jerusalem since Herod.” TLS signed “Teddy,” one page, 8 x 11, on embossed Mayor of Jerusalem letterhead, January 4, 1979. In a letter to the Chairman of the Jerusalem Rotary Club, Mayor Kollek writes, in part: “It gives me much pleasure to extend to you my congratulations on the 50th anniversary of the Rotary Club in Jerusalem…You have proved that the spirit of idealism and dedication continues to live and will serve as a source of inspiration to the entire citizenry. Over the years, thousands of Rotarians from many parts of the world have come to our city and the Rotary Club of Jerusalem has helped not only welcome these guests, but also to introduce them to the problems of the city and Israel at large. Thus, your work strengthens the international ties between Jerusalem and the rest of the world.” Three horizontal mailing folds, scattered light creasing, and a few quick pencil notations at the top in another hand, otherwise fine condition.
