Description

Giddy-up! Patton’s expectations for “a polo team as well as show horses but that will depend on how much money we get”

TLS signed “G. S. Patton, Jr.,” one page, 6 x 7, personal 3rd Cavalry letterhead, December 11, 1920. Patton writes to “My dear Brown.” In part: “Many thanks for your trouble in the matter of collecting the $21.00 for which I acknowledge receipt. I was glad also that the Army did so well at the show for as you say we have been noticable [sic] mostly by our absence in the past. I hope next year we can have a polo team as well as show horses but that will depend on how much money we get as it is a pretty expensive shipment from here.” In fine, clean condition. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
