TLS signed “Harry,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, June 4, 1959. Letter to Judge F. Ryan Duffy. In part: “It was wonderful to see McCarthy finally appeased, by the way. As a professor, I am a dud, but I have a lot of fun working at it, just as I did as Senator and as President of the United States…Margaret’s boy has turned out all right, but it was a little hard on the old man to have her in the hospital in New York at the same time Mrs. Truman underwent her operation here. Both came through in fine shape, and both are now at home.” Truman adds a rather lengthy handwritten postscript at the conclusion, “Remember me to all the family. Talk about seeing all your friends at a funeral, we had [a] political boss here once named Joe Shannon, he never missed one!” In fine condition. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
