HOOVER,  Herbert. ARCHIVE OF 7 LETTERS AND MISCELLANEOUS
        MATERIAL.  A collection of correspondence consisting of seven
        TYPED LETTERS  SIGNED  by  the former President,  all  dating
        from the  1950s  and  one  in a simple  frame,  along  with a
        number  of  pamphlets  printing speeches by  Hoover,  letters
        from Hoover's  assistants  and minor political figures,  form
        responses,   clippings,  etc.  The   letters,  though  brief,
        contain  some  interesting comments. In one letter  dated  25
        January  1953, Hoover states, "The sun surely shines brighter
        since November  4th," referring of course to the election  of
        Eisenhower.  All in all, a wealth of material all to the same
        correspondent  with  a  number of copies of  her  letters  to
        Hoover and others. Near Fine                         $1500.00
