Description

LETTER FROM FELIX FRANKFURTER - April 6, 1927 Letter from Judge Frankfurter (1882-1965), to Dr. Samuel McChord Crothers, Unitarian Minister and Reformer, on Law School of Harvard University letterhead, tls, 1 pg, alerting the Reverend to a meeting at the offices of John F Moore at 111 Devonshire St, to stop the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti. Obviously, they failed, as the anarchists were executed on August 23, 1927. Frankfurter went on to serve on the US Supreme Court from 1939-1962. Folded into a tiny square, probably to tuck into a wallet.
