Description

Ike thanks the governor of California for a barbecue recipe

TLS as president, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, July 26, 1957. Letter of thanks to California governor Goodwin J. Knight. In part: “Thank you so much for the recipe for California Barbecued Turkey that I find in the book presented to me by the delegates to the American legion’s 12th Annual Boys’ Nation. I am grateful to you for sending it along (and, incidentally, it sounds most intriguing), and to the two representatives from California who brought it to Washington.” In very good condition, with scattered moderate toning, staple and staple hole to top left, and several pencil and ink notation to letter. Several pages of correspondence involving the sending of the recipe are stapled to the letter. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
