Description

He’d rather be in the saddle: “We brought a horse up.... The only trouble is there is riding room but no riding time”

ALS signed “Ron,” one lightly-lined yellow page, 7.5 x 9.5, dated in another hand June 15, 1967. Reagan writes to Mrs. Herbert C. Sanderson. In part: “I’ve just read the article about the billboard and seen the picture—in the ‘Bee’ yet! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate what you are doing & all that you’ve done…. We brought a horse up a few months ago and have him out on a ranch with plenty of riding room at Roseville. The only trouble is there is riding room but no riding time. He & I have gotten together about 4 times….” Mounting tape to reverse of top edge, and slight uniform fading from previous framing, otherwise fine, clean condition. R&R COA. Oversized.
