Item Details
Description
A fine set of six typed documents bearing autograph notes by Reagan as President, one of which is signed with initials "RR," executed in blue ink at the bottom of each page beneath typed talking points for telephone calls with world leaders, and reflecting on the results of each call. Comprises six pages, 8.5” x 11”, [n.p. but Washington, D.C., n.d. but January 1981]. In fine condition.After President Reagan was inaugurated in January in 1981, he made a number of personal phone calls to the most important world leaders at the time to introduce himself and set his new agenda in world affairs. These are the original presidential phone call outlines and notes of major contemporary topics between each nation and the United States.Reagan’s correspondents were: Prime Minister Suzuki of Japan, Chancellor Helmut Schmidt of Germany, Prime Minister Arnaldo Forlani of Italy, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau of Canada, President Valery Giscard D’Estaing of France, and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher of the United Kingdom. Most of the notes include brief phrases such as “Would like to meet possibly earlier than July Ec. Conf…” [Schmidt]; “…thanked our country for its help on earthquake, etc…” [Forlani]; and “She’s looking forward to visit…” [Thatcher.]Reagan’s notes about his call to Prime Minister Zenko Suzuki are much longer, and he signs with initials. In part: “…Call made – but did not have this [talking points document] with me so missed a few points. However, the call was made under great difficulties. I could hear the P.M. speaking in Japanese very clearly. The interpreter speaking the English translation was barely audible. At any rate, I think we both got the idea across that we’d like to see each other soon, etc. RR”.This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.WE PROVIDE IN-HOUSE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE!
