Large collection of items spanning Glenn’s political and space career. Included is a TLS, signed “John Glenn,” one page, 8.5 x 11, August 28, 1969. Glenn politely declines an invitation to a park dedication, writing, in part: “I appreciate the invitation more than I can say but regret I will not be able to accept. I guess we all need some longer days and weeks to work in all the things we would like to do, and I am no exception.” Other signed material are a 1962 TLS signed by Glenn’s wife, “Mrs. John H. Glenn, Jr.,” as well as a brief ALS, signed “Mrs. John Glenn.” Also included are two color candid glossy photos of the Glenn home on moving day, one featuring Glenn standing in the doorway; a Glenn campaign bumper sticker, a booklet entitled ‘Astronaut John H. Glenn Orbits the Earth for America,’ and multiple newspaper clippings and articles from Glenn’s Mercury and space shuttle missions. In fine overall condition. RR Auction COA.
