An auction House in London has decided to put many documents of Mahatma Gandhi and Jowharlal Neheru to Auction. They have a lot of signed and autographed letters by Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru and some documents and postcards.
A khadi cloth signed by Gandhi and said to have been woven by him will go under the hammer at an estimated price of 2,000-2,500 pounds (Rs 1.59-1.99 lakh).
The cloth was a gift from Gandhi to South African-born actress Moira Lister, who was a friend of Maharani of Jaipur Gayatri Devi.
Two autograph postcards (1,500-2,000 pounds or Rs 1.19-1.59 lakh) signed by Gandhi to Urdu poet Hamid Ullah Afsar also figure in the auction of 153 lots under the category of English Literature, History, Children's Books and Illustrations.
