Description

“I believe a b’ball game is for watching, not speech making”

ALS as vice president, signed “George,” one page both sides, 6.5 x 8.25, Vice Presidential Air Force Two letterhead, August 14, 1985. Bush writes to Senator Pat Moynihan, in full: “Thanks for the Ginseng, I need it. As to the b’ball game speech—I didn’t forget it. I believe a ball game is for watching not speech making. It was good seeing you on your home turf. The local Republicans were pleased you popped into that reception. Hang in there and thanks. (Just finished my first cup of Ginseng tea—I’m doing better).” In fine condition, with filing notations to upper edge, two tack holes to upper left corner, and office stamps to the left edge on both sides. Bold signature and interesting content make this an excellent addition to any presidential collection! RRAuction COA.
