Description

Vice President Ford provides a writing sample to an eager collector

ALS signed “Jerry Ford,” one page, 7 x 9, The Vice President, Washington letterhead, January 19, 1974. Responding to a well-known collector/dealer for a sample of his handwriting, Ford writes, in full: “Your letter of Dec. 13th has been received & I apologize for my tardiness. This was occasioned by a family vacation & a big back-log of work. I congratulate you on your fine project & wish you well.” In fine condition, with a few trivial spots of soiling and some light wrinkling. A scarce handwritten letter from Ford, just months before he would assume presidency after Nixon’s resignation. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
