[Rarebooks] FS: Fine Letter from Jimmy Carter as President to the Prime Minister of Italy

[Charles Agvent]

We will have many fine items such as this in Booth 312 at the book fair 
in Pasadena this weekend.

CARTER, Jimmy. TYPED LETTER SIGNED (TLS) as President to the Prime 
Minister of Italy. Washington DC, 1 July 1977. Superb letter on White 
House stationery SIGNED in full to the Prime Minister of Italy, Giulio 
Andreotti, regarding an upcoming visit to the United States and a youth 
unemployment bill recently passed by the Italian parliament. In part: 
"You have suggested an excellent agenda for our talks. Each of the 
subjects is of vital importance to both our nations, and to the broader 
context of international politics and economics. It would also be 
helpful for me to gain your views about political developments in Europe 
and the best way for the United States to work with you and your 
government in the days ahead." Letters exchanged between world leaders 
are, as one would expect, quite scarce in the marketplace. Faint folds 
from mailing. Fine.

Giulio Andreotti served as the 41st Prime Minister of Italy from 1972 to 
1973, from 1976 to 1979 and from 1989 to 1992. A journalist as well, he 
was also Minister of the Interior (1954 and 1978), Defense Minister 
(1959--1966 and 1974), Foreign Minister (1983--1989), and was a Senator 
for life from 1991 until his death in 2013. He enacted a number of 
social reforms as prime minister including extending health insurance to 
citizens over the age of 65 in receipt of a social pension. (#017295)
