TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, dated January 18, 1988, personal letterhead. Nixon writes to the Ben Franklin Stamp Club. In part, “The day I was born…was one of the coldest days in history in Yorba Linda…According to the weatherman, January 9, 1988, was one of the coldest days in history on that date in Saddle River, New Jersey. But what really warmed up the day was the very thoughtful birthday card and letters which members of your club sent to me. As a token of my appreciation, I am enclosing a copy of my book Leaders, for your school library.” Included is the hardcover copy of Leaders mentioned in the letter, signed on the half title page by Nixon, and the letter’s original mailing envelope. In fine condition. R&R COA.
