Description

America's chief stamp collector

TLS, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, August 10, 1937. Letter to L. F. Livingston at the Main Post Office Building in Atlanta, in full: "I have received your letter of August ninth and appreciate very much your kindly thought in arranging to have that interesting set of covers sent to me. I am very glad to have them for my collection and, if you have an opportunity, I hope you will be good enough to express my thanks to the senders." In very good to fine condition, with rusty staple holes to the top, and scattered light staining. Accompanied by a carbon copy of Livingston's letter to Roosevelt, as well as six sheets with photostatic reproductions of 34 postal cachets from Georgia post offices. An interesting philatelic letter from FDR.
