Description

“It will be a great year for base ball. Am sorry about not having a better ball club, have no Stars coming from the service”

ALS, one page, 6 x 9.5, Soreno Hotel letterhead, February 6, 1946. Letter to “Captain Somers.” In full: “Pleased as usual to hear from you–Am now about ready to leave for West Palm Beach and will agree with you that it will be a great year for base ball. Am sorry about not having a better ball club, have no Stars coming from the service–all we have here in the East is strikes–looks like the Steel plants and the General Motors will continue for a long time and it won’t help anyone. That is all we here [sic] around here is about the different organizations striking. Will be glad when the season opens will have something to think about. If anything turns up will have you in mind.” Intersecting folds, some light creasing and wrinkling, and a few small spots of toning, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
