Description

World War II-dated TLS as first lady, one page, 6 x 9.25, White House letterhead, June 16, 1943. Letter to newspaper gossip columnist and radio news commentator Walter Winchell, in full: “The Information on the slip you sent me is not exactly accurate, because I was not called at the White House, but it is accurate as such information goes. I’ll watch myself even more carefully, even on such innocuous information from now on!” Roosevelt adds two words in her own hand. In fine condition, with staple holes to the upper left corner. Accompanied by the original White House mailing envelope.
