Description

Woodrow Wilson Signed Book, "The Poems of William Watson"

Signed book: The Poems of William Watson. Later printing. NY: Macmillan, 1893. Hardcover bound in blue cloth with gilt lettering, 5" x 7.25", 280 pages. Signed and inscribed on the first free end page in ink to his wife Ellen Axson Wilson, "To E. A. W.,—whose gifts make her kin to all poets and all artists—on her birthday, W. W., 15 May, 1893." Autographic condition: fine. Book condition: VG/None, with wear at the spine's head, cracked hinges, moderate foxing to textblock, and a "Library of Lawrence E. Miller" blindstamp to a rear page.

Woodrow Wilson married Ellen Louise Axson in June 1885, and presented this book to her on the occasion of her 33rd birthday. Warmly inscribed with his appreciation for her work—Ellen studied at the Art Students League of New York and was an accomplished painter—this is a profound piece from the personal library of the future first lady.

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.
