ALS signed “Wm. McKinley,” one page, 5.5 x 9.25, personal letterhead, May 10, 1896. Letter to Henry L. Stoddard, author of As I Knew Them: President and Politics from Grant to Coolidge. In part: “Mrs. McKinley is having a dinner party this evening…it would have given us much pleasure to have seen you. As I suggested, I will be glad to have you come in tomorrow morning.” Professional repairs to separations to reverse of horizontal folds, uniform toning, and a slightly rough left edge, otherwise fine condition. McKinley's well-known expertise on the tariff issue, successful record as governor, and genial personality appealed to many Republican voters. After winning the nomination he went home and conducted his famous ‘front porch campaign,’ addressing hundreds of thousands of voters.
