Five autograph manuscripts on relations with the United States of America, comprising:
a. Autograph speech notes for the farewell lunch at Chequers for US ambassador Charlie Price, 5 February 1989, paying tribute to Price’s personal qualities, noting the key issues of the UK-US relationship, including Libya and Lockerbie, as well as her own ‘happy memories’ of the White House and Camp David, and her ‘close relationship with Ron & Nancy [Reagan]’, ending with a ringing endorsement of the special relationship, ‘Friendship between US & UK never greater in peace time than now’. On 6 cards with printed heading of 10 Downing Street, 90 x 115mm.
b. Autograph manuscript notes, ‘America’, n.d., a tribute to the United States of America: ‘Yours is a country founded on liberty, more than any other / Yours is a country to which refugees came, more than any other / Yours is a people who have fought against tyranny the world over, more than any other’. One page, 241 x 191mm, in blue and red ink.
c. Autograph manuscript notes for a speech in honour of ‘Walter & Lee’ [Annenberg], n.d. [after 1992], who 'Represent all that is best in America', praising their work for the Children's Institute, whose 'Purpose [is] to make the American dream a reality for those who otherwise may never have had the opportunity'. 3 pages, 4to, in black ink with red underlining, on personal stationery.
d. Autograph manuscript draft for a speech at the national convention of Concerned Women for America [after 1992], opening 'Alan Greenspan hails the U.S. economic system, built on a culture of freedom, trust, rule of law and individual fair dealing...', and going on with the prayer 'When thou embarkest on any great endeavour ...'. 2 pages, 4to, the first on personal stationery.
e. Autograph manuscript draft for the opening of a speech at Denver University, n.d., on the American spirit: ‘you serve your country best, by bequeathing to the future an even greater inheritance than that which you yourselves received’. One page, 4to.
