“My feelings about the Titanic is leave it where it is”

One of the last remaining Titanic survivors (1908–1992). ALS, one page both sides, 6 x 8.75, April 28, 1986. Letter to a Titanic enthusiast. In part: “On April 8, 1912 I was 4 years old. As far as remembering its all a blank until I came to Milwaukee. I don't remember being in New York nor the train ride to Milwaukee. My feelings about the Titanic is leave it where it is. My Fathers [sic] sister and brother are down there let that be their buriel [sic] place. If anything on the ship can be brought up and put on display in museum for all the world to see I’m all for it but not for commercial purpose.” In very good condition, with scattered toning and creasing.
