TLS, two pages, 7.75 x 10, personal letterhead, August 6, 1892. Letter to respected photographer Napoleon Sarony. In part: “In reply to your recent letter in regard to photographs taken at your studio, will say that Mrs. Cleveland prefers…numbers seven and eight…So far as my pictures are concerned they are all entirely satisfactory. In carrying out your kind intentions to furnish us with pictures…it might be well to furnish me with some variety. Of course, we only expect cabinet and panel pictures in fulfillment of your proposition.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and a small area of paper loss to lower right corner tip of the first page. Cleveland had married Frances Folsom six years earlier at the White House, the only such presidential wedding. At the time of writing this letter, Cleveland was between presidential terms and would be reelected three months later, on November 8. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
