TLS, one page, 7 x 9, Vice President letterhead, February 5, 1981. Letter of thanks for a sent telegram. In full: "Thank you so much for your thoughtful telegram, concerning the return of the hostages. It was a most moving experience for us to greet the hostages at the airport, and I felt their return was handled very well. I agree with you, that we did not want to over do the welcome home, thus putting too much pressure on the freed Americans and their families." In fine condition, with a few small creases and wrinkles. Bush was head of a delegation that welcomed the 52 US citizens to freedom after 444 days in captivity. A poignant reminder of a dark time in US history. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Direct insight from Bush from one of America's most trying times.
