WASHINGTON, Booker T. AUTOGRAPH QUOTE SIGNED (AQS). Tuskegee, AL:
7 Dec. 1897. A fine quote--"Be too great to be little"--on a 6-1/2" x
8" page removed from an autograph album SIGNED and dated by
Washington in Tuskegee. The verso bears an unknown signature as does
the top of the page that Washington has signed, but this could be
easily removed or matted over. A wonderful display piece. Mild aging
of paper. About Fine and an unusual form of Washington's autograph.
