Description

Well-rounded Waterman book signed by almost 100, including Churchill, Gershwin, Earhart, Mack, and Bobby Jones

Waterman’s autograph album, 5 x 7.25, belonging to a young woman named Margaret L. Everett of Malden, Massachusetts, with 99 clipped ink and pencil signatures affixed to the inside pages. Signers include: Herbert Hoover, Calvin Coolidge, Grace Coolidge, Edith Bolling Wilson, Charles Evans Hughes, Oliver Wendell Holmes, J. D. Waterman, Charles Schwab, Edgar Guest, Carl Sandburg, Franz Lehar, George Gershwin, Maxfield Parrish, John Barrymore, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Amelia Earhart, Eddie Rickenbacker, Winston Churchill, Neville Chamberlain, the Mayo Brothers, Lowell Thomas, Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Connie Mack, Bobby Jones, Gene Tunney, and Barney Oldfield. All the signatures have been applied to the pages with brief identifications added underneath by the collector, as specified by Waterman’s. In fine condition, with a couple of loose signatures. As with all of these Waterman books, the signatures were closely cut and pasted in and, as such, are not well-made for removal from the book. In overall very good condition. RRAuction COA.
