stock.  See them all here: http://www.charlesagvent.com

ROOSEVELT, Eleanor & FERRIS, Helen. YOUR TEENS AND MINE. Garden City: 
Doubleday & Company, Inc., (1961). First Edition. SIGNED by the former 
First Lady on the front endpaper. Roosevelt advises how a teen-age girl 
can grow to be a gracious lady by recounting her own experiences of 
overcoming shyness and facing her fears. A few pages in the penultimate 
chapter have pencil and pen markings with some words crossed out and a 
few added, apparently in preparation for reading from the chapter. The 
handwriting does not appear to be Roosevelt's but possibly may be 
Ferris's. In any case, it's an interesting alteration to an already 
uncommon book, especially when autographed. Near Fine in a Very Good 
dustwrapper.         $1,000.00
