Signed at conclusion, "Woodrow Wilson," with pencil corrections throughout by Wilson's Secretary, Joseph Tumulty. Includes the original typed letter on White House stationery by Tumulty to J.E. Boos who sent in the typescript. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA.Condition: Typescript is in excellent condition with only minor toning. Letter has minor toning, some creasing, and a few minor marks at upper margin.
