31st President. Bank of New York and Trust Company check made out to Roosevelt for $903.90 by Basil O’Connor, January 31, 1939, 8×3, signed and endorsed on the verso: “Franklin D. Roosevelt” AS PRESIDENT.
O’Connor was Roosevelt’s legal advisor and law partner. He co-founded with Roosevelt and served as president of the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation. After their efforts to combat polio became nationwide, the foundation was reconstituted into the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (March of Dimes) in 1938. The present check was a donation directed to FDR for the foundation.
In very fine condition with two stains near the center of the left and right borders, expected cancellation marks.
