TLS, one page, 8 x 9, State of New York Executive Chamber letterhead, December 22, 1930. Letter to P. A. Anderson. In full: “I did not have an opportunity while at Warm Springs to thank you for your letter of congratulations, but I want you to know that I am very grateful. It was good of you to think of me.” Uniform toning and a trimmed bottom edge, otherwise fine condition. In 1924, FDR famously traveled to Warm Springs, Georgia, where he found that immersion in the area’s mineral-rich warm water was one of the few things that provided relief from his polio-induced paralysis. Shortly thereafter he purchased the resort and developed it into what became a world-famous polio treatment center—the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation, still in operation today as the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation. An important association. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
