Step back in time with this exceptionally rare and historically significant find: a First Edition, First Printing of "A Trip to Washington with Bobby and Betty" by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt (Eleanor Roosevelt). Published by Dodge Publishing Company in early 1935, this is an early work by the revered First Lady, originally released under her husband's name.

This particular copy is a true collector's dream, presented in near fine condition and featuring the unbelievably scarce original paper dust jacket. While the dust jacket was previously tattered, it has been meticulously preserved and protected in a Brodart cover, ensuring its longevity. The preservation of this original dust jacket is paramount, as it very well may be the only surviving example of its kind from the first edition.

Owning this book isn't just acquiring a piece of history; it's holding a tangible connection to one of America's most influential figures. Perfect for enthusiasts of American history, presidential memorabilia, rare book collectors, or as an unparalleled gift for a librarian or history buff. This unique artifact embodies the spirit of an era and offers a fascinating glimpse into Eleanor Roosevelt's literary beginnings.
