Pulp and science-fiction author (1911–1986) who became a lightning rod for controversy as the founder of the Church of Scientology. TLS signed “Ron,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, July 9, 1978. Letter addressed to “Mike Moore, FLAG REP, MEL F.” In part: “I like hearing that you have outgrown the present building and are expanding to a new one. All right! Pay a visit to Qual and ask for the relevant issues regarding how it is that you seem to as-is things after writing them down. They will be most happy to assist. I am quite pleased with the results from Op Z and know that this is going to be a banner year for Scientology around the planet.” In fine condition, with a trivial stain to bottom edge. A choice example of Hubbard correspondence directly mentioning Scientology. RRAuction COA.
