Description

“Since the public announcement that I made with regard to the decimal point…is generally moving further to the left”

Two TLSs, both one page, 7.25 x 10.5, both on his personal letterhead, dated 1933 and 1936. The latter one reads, in part: “Since the public announcement that I made with regard to the decimal point, I have had a further note on the subject which might be of use to you, and that is that the decimal point is generally moving further to the left.” In very good condition, with scattered toning and damp staining to both. Hoover referred to decimal points several times during his presidency regarding the government’s debt and was also a strong opponent to FDR’s recently unveiled New Deal. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
