Raoul Wallenberg Signed Schutz-Pass Document (1944) World War II-dated DS in German and Hungarian, quickly signed by Wallenberg with an ink scribble (as he commonly did on documents of this type), one page, 8 x 13.25, August 30, 1944. Blue and gold two-language Schutz-Pass issued to "Aurel Fold" of Budapest. Upper left provides his personal information including his 1877 birth date, height, eye, and hair color. Adjacent to his personal information is Spiegel's signature and affixed photograph. Bottom portion bears printed statements in German and Hungarian, hastily signed in the lower left corner by Wallenberg, and countersigned by Swedish Minister to Budapest, Carl Ivan Danielsson. In very good condition, with creasing and soiling to the front, and complete silking and archival reinforcement to the reverse. A similar example of Wallenberg's rushed signature can be found in the book Fleeing from the Fuhrer by William Kaczynski and Charmian Brinson. Wallenberg arrived in Hungary in July 1944 as the country's Jewish population was under siege. Nearly every other major Jewish community in Europe had already been decimated, and the Nazis were dispatching more than 10,000 Hungarian Jews to the gas chambers daily. With time of the essence, he devised and distributed thousands of these 'Schutz-Passes'—official-looking, but essentially invalid, Swedish passports granting the Hungarian bearer immunity from deportation. Nazi officials readily accepted the paperwork. Thus, with his simple, nondescript scribble on this offered page, Wallenberg saved the life of Aurel Fold—just as he had done with tens of thousands of other Jews in Hungary. An announcement that any Jew, even those holding foreign citizenship, would be interred led to the urgency of Wallenberg's plan to save as many lives as he could. An important reminder of one heroic man's tireless efforts to outwit the Nazis and save countless lives.

North America - CREVECOEUR (Michel Guillaume Jean de, dit J. Hector St John). Letters from an American farmer addressed to Wm. S... on Esq.r. from the year 1770 to 1786. Paris, Cuchet, 1787. 3 vol. in-8 marbled calf, ornate ribbed spine, title and greevel pages, red tr. (period binding). Rare edition, the most complete, of which the 3rd volume is almost entirely in the original edition. Illustrated with 3 title vignettes, 4 plates and 5 large folding maps. Spellings otherwise a fine copy. Originally from Normandy, Saint-John de Crèvecoeur (1735-1813) embarked for New France at the age of 20, where he served as a cartographer in Montcalm's army during the Seven Years' War. He traveled extensively, taking notes and working as a surveyor, before becoming a farmer, first in Ulster County and then in Orange County, New York, where he took citizenship and adopted the name "J. Hector St John". Leading a prosperous life on his farm, he began writing in 1770 about life in the American colonies and the emergence of an American society. The Revolution forced him to leave the country in 1780, and after a perilous 2-year journey (during which he published Letters from an American Farmer in London), he managed to return to France for a short time, returning to America in November 1783 as French consul. In 1784, he published this much expanded and more literary French edition of his Letters from an American Farmer.
