ANS signed “T. Roosevelt,” on one of Roosevelt’s 3 x 1.5 calling cards, no date. Short note to an unidentified recipient. In full: “Many thanks for your very kind word. If you will get from the library my book ‘Fear God and Take Your Own Part’ you will find the whole matter in the chapter on the ‘Panama Blackmail Treaty.’” In fine condition. In 1903, the nation of Columbia scandalously attempted to force the United States to pay a massive sum to build the Panama Canal, much higher than the original treaty had stated. Roosevelt resisted and the construction began in 1904. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
