Provisional leader of the Soviet Union (1881–1970) from July to November 1917, when he was unseated by Lenin and forced into exile. TLS in Russian, signed “AK,” one page, 8 x 10, May 3, 1955. Letter to Yury Borisovich, with a brief handwritten greeting at the close. In part (translated): "Streibert made his statement on October 29, 1953. Soon after that I was in Wash[ington] on the KTSAB matter and none other than General Bedell Smith, who, at that time, was substituting for Dulles, stated to me that it was just 'a misunderstanding.' However, this misunderstanding is still going on and on today. There are wise people in Wash[ington], but to this very day they are not able to overcome the influence of all sorts of Dobiansky's in Congress and in the ruling circles, although they say that some changes are noticeable.
I did receive the books. Warm thanks, and I am happy with your new big success, which is apparent also from the foreword by Micha[el] Ch[ekhov]. Only a few days from now I will begin to read it myself. On Wednesday I will forward the book to Andrew; he already knows about its arrival, but he complains that you do not write to him at all." In fine condition.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
