PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES – A group of eight pieces, but primarily letters, from several mid-twentieth century presidents, [including:] KENNEDY, John F. (1917-1963). Typed letter signed ("John Kennedy") as U.S. representative to Francis Newton of the Powers and Hall law firm, Washington, October 31, 1952. One page, quarto. Regarding the permanent residency of a recently-deported, anti-Communist refugee. Writing to the legal counsel for Theodore K. Yantshev, who fled Bulgaria in 1946 and entered the U.S. illegally, Kennedy details that his case has been reconsidered and reviewed by the Immigration and Naturalization service yet his deportation order via the Regional Office in Boston has been upheld. Kennedy also mentions that "under current policy, there will be no hearing and no oral argument, the case being considered solely on the information and evidence at hand", yet concludes with assurance that "I shall continue to do what I can to assist". According to the Special Collections of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Theodore Konstantin Yantshev arrived in Baltimore as a stowaway in June 1946, seeking asylum in the U.S. From Baltimore, Yantshev headed to Boston where he later landed an electrical technician position at MIT, but was arrested when he was unable to produce proof of citizenship during a routine investigation. He was deported in 1947 and continued his campaign to be granted asylum from Argentina. By the time his name his came up in the Bulgarian immigration quota in 1955, he had lost the financial means to bring his family over and abandoned his efforts. * EISENHOWER, Dwight d. (1890-1969). Typed letter signed ("D.E.") to his former National Security Advisor, Robert Cutler, Gettysburg, 15 May 1961. One page, quarto. (uneven toning at top) Seeking color for his memoirs. Eisenhower asks Cutler, who joined Eisenhower's first presidential campaign in September 1952, if he had any "human interest stories that would liven up the bare bones I have so far set down." * TRUMAN, Harry S. (1884-1972). Typed letter signed ("Harry Truman") as President to Bishop G. Bromley Oxnam, Washington, 5 January 1946. One page, quarto. Thanking the President of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America for "that letter from yourself, Dr. Barnes and Dr. Van Kirk" and expressing gratitude for their approval. * NIXON, Richard (1913-1994). Typed letter signed ("Richard Nixon") as Vice President with autograph postscript to the President of the State University of New York, William J. Haggerty, Washington, 19 January 1954. One page, quarto, on Office of the Vice President letterhead (some stains at upper-left). Thanking his correspondent for his prior letter and "generous comments concerning my radio report on our recent trip around the world". Nixon adds additional interest to Haggerty's comments, as "you were in India for a year as a member of our Point 4 mission...I am glad to know you agree with my comments about the relationship of our citizens to the peoples of the countries we visited..." * JOHNSON, Lyndon B. (1908-1973). Typed letter signed ("Lyndon B. Johnson") as Congressman to Mamye A. Kelley, Washington, 30 March 1943. One page, quarto. A friendly response to a previous letter to Kelly, a postmaster in Texas, adding "...you may be sure I will keep confidential any views you expressed to me and I hope you will continue to 'let your hair down' whenever you have the time to drop me a line..." * FORD, Gerald (1913-2006). Typed letter signed ("Jerry Ford") as House Minority Leader to Donald J. Bremer, Washington, 25 March 1969. Two pages, quarto. (mounting remnants on the verso) Responding to a constituent's criticism over Ford's recent pay raise as Minority Leader, and writing, "I personally did not request a salary of $55,000 a year. This was one the recommendations of the Commission set up by the Congress to determine salaries... when it was proposed in the House of Representatives that such a Commission be established, I was one of those who voted 'no.'" —adding that he preferred that Congress vote on the matter itself. "The Commission in setting the salary did not have Jerry Ford in mind. It set the salary for the office of Minority Leader. I happen to hold that office temporarily..." * CARTER, James E. (b. 1924). Typed note signed twice (once "Jimmy" at the conclusion, again "J" in the postscript) with autograph postscript to photographer Gregg Boersma, n.p., 4 August 1981. One page, octavo. Sending thanks for sending photographs of a message in the snow, then adding "I would like to have the slide" in the postscript. * CARTER, James E. and CARTER, Rosalynn (1946-2023). A signed first day cover from Carter's Inauguration Day, hand-cancelled "January 20, 1977" from Plains, GA, signed "J Carter" and "Rosalynn Carter".
