[Rarebooks] FS: Eleanor Roosevelt's Autobiography INSCRIBED to the King and Queen of Greece

[Charles Agvent]

ROOSEVELT, Eleanor. THIS IS MY STORY. New York & London: Harper & 
Brothers, 1937. Reprint. Illustrated with photographs. SIGNED by the 
author on the half-title page and INSCRIBED "To their Majesties/The King 
& Queen of Greece/With good wishes/Eleanor Roosevelt." Most likely the 
recipients are Paul and his wife Frederika of Hanover. Paul succeeded to 
the throne in 1947, on the death of his childless elder brother, King 
George II, during the Greek Civil War. Needless to say, books inscribed 
by the First Lady to royalty are rare. Near Fine in a Very Good 
dustwrapper, bright but with some edgewear. (#015406)        $1,500.00
