[Charles Agvent]

[ROOSEVELT, Franklin D.]. THE DEMOCRATIC BOOK 1936. First Edition.
Folio  (11"  x  14")  in the original full  brown  leather  with  gilt
lettering  on  the front cover and the original pictorial wraps  bound
in;  384  pages. SIGNED by the President beneath a color image of  the
White  House  on the limitation leaf, #1069 of an unstated  limitation
of  2500  copies,  which is often found removed from the  book  as  it
makes  a beautiful display piece. Some light and scattered foxing. The
page  with FDR's signature is Fine. The binding has some edgewear  and
light  wear to the corners with rubbing to the front cover. The  spine
tips  are worn with some erosion to the bottom and areas of  splitting
to  the  spine  edge at the front, though the cover  is  still  tight.
Still Very Good and increasingly uncommon.                    $3500.00
