ELEANOR ROOSEVELT
Written during UN General Assembly meeting in London.
Typed Letter
Signed: "Eleanor Roosevelt", 1p, 8x10½. On scarce stationery of the United States
Delegation to the General Assembly of the United Nations, London, England, 1946
January 15. To Mrs. Louise Andree Coury, London. In full: "Many
thanks for your magazines. Something similar is done by the Junior Literary
Guild in the United States. I think you might write to Miss Helen Ferris, Junior
Literary Guild. I don't know the address but you may send it in care of Miss
Malvina C. Thompson, 342 Madison Avenue, New York City (Room 901) and I am sure
she would forward it. I could not sponsor any clubs of the kind but there might
be some ideas that you have that Miss Ferris would be glad to incorporate in
their plan." In London, the former First Lady was instrumental in getting
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations.
Eleanor Roosevelt served as U.S. delegate to the UN General Assembly in
1945, 1947-1952 and 1961. She had served as First Lady longer than any other
woman in U.S. history (1933-1945) and was affectionately known as "First Lady of
the World". Fine condition.
