Helen Keller’s Archive of Letters Up For Grabs For $75,000

Helen Keller‘s remarkable collection of letters — spanning from her childhood to adulthood — is hitting the open market for a jaw-dropping $75,000.

Momentsintime.com got its hands on the historic pages … which for the first time, reveal new details about the unknown relationship between Helen and her mother, Kate.

There’s a truly remarkable 7-page handwritten and illustrated letter written by Helen when she was just 8 years old — and, it provides early insight into how she’d later break barriers for people with hearing and sight impairments.

In addition, there’s a stack of 20 typed letters in the mix … some sent to other relatives, revealing Helen’s poetic flair and empathetic side.

This extraordinary archive was found in a Pasadena, CA garage sale, and purchased for the low low price of $54 — so, it’s an astronomical markup, but clearly a gem for any historical collector.

Born in 1880, Helen faced extraordinary challenges from the start — blind, deaf, and unable to speak.
