Quite unusual letter was discovered in Cuba of all places. Letter on White House stationery is dated August 8th, 1908, during the second occupation. An impatient President Theodore Roosevelt roughly demands a response from the provisional Governor of Cuba, Charles Edward Magoon. It is signed by Theodore Roosevelt in black ink. This was ten years since the Battle of San Juan Hill where Teddy and the Rough Riders made history. Comes certified by PSA.
