A rare postcard sized photograph of Gandhi spinning cotton at home. Signed by Gandhi on the front side „M K Gandhi“ and inscribed as a gift through his secretary, Rajkumari Amrit Kaur, "Through Rajkumari Anmrit Kaur 2-aug-1935." Traces of paper on verso as if previously glued into an album. [WITH] 7 other photographs and two prints of Gandhi, various sizes, c.1930, and a 78 rpm record issued by Columbia in London, c. 1931. titled Mahatma Gandhi His Spiritual Message part 1 and 2, the label with a reproduction signature to each side, in its original gray paper sleeve, issued as part of "Star Artistes of Southern Indian." The record is broke though. Rajkumari Amrit Kaur, an important political and social activist, was educated in England; upon her return to India in 1919 she met Gandhi but couldn't join in his struggle until her father had died.
In 1929 she joined Gandhi as his secretary and worked for him for 17 years. Of noble birth, the Princess helped establish the AIWC in 1927 dedicated to women's empowerment in India, and in 1947 Nehru called her into the first government of India as Minister of Health. The record is issued in England in 1931 and one of the few recordings of Gandhi speaking in English, probably the earliest. It was recorded on October 17th in Kingsley Hall, London, as Gandhi was attending the Second Round Table Conference in London, to get a deal on India's Independence..

In Gujarati. Eight letters to Jamnabehn and one to Yashwant Prasad, comprising two autograph letters signed, three autograph cards signed, and four cards signed in pencil, discussing Gandhi's diet and health, refusing the offer of a blanket (“…one that I have is enough…”), and expressing his concern about Yashwant Prasad's heart condition. “…Don’t worry about me. I take all the precautions necessary. God is there to take care of all of us. Before the Almighty we are helpless, worrying causes unnecessary problems…” Jamnabehn, a member of the extended Gandhi clan, was an active weaver of khadi on the charkha and worked alongside Dadabhai Naroji's grandchildren Perin Ben Captain and Khrushed Behn.
Most of these letters date from 1926, when Gandhi was living in self-imposed withdrawal from the public world at Sabarmati and experimenting with a diet of fruit..
