DR SEUSS EPHEMERA. TWO BOOKMARKS. ONE IS SIGNED

Two "CAT IN THE HAT" BOOKMARKS. ONE IS SIGNED BY DR. SEUSS. Issued by the WOODWARD & LOTHROP DEPARTMENT STORE in the 1970's for a DR. SEUSS BOOK SIGNING EVENT. Orange construction paper with a printed illustration of "The Cat In The Hat" and lettered: "I met Dr. Seuss at Woodies today". One bookmark is SIGNED by DR. SEUSS. I remember standing at the end of a very long line at this book signing event waiting to meet Dr Seuss in person and to have him sign my children's books. I was worried that with so many people there Dr Seuss would either get up and leave before I could reach him or, that he would be so grumpy that he would scare the children. Not so! He chatted pleasantly and was as gracious as could be. These bookmarks have been tucked away for a long time and now I hope someone else will enjoy them. The Woodward & Lothrop Department Store which was once a Washington D.C. treasure is, sadly, no longer in existence. Each bookmark measures 8 1/2" by 1 1/2". In excellent condition.
