Description

“Wish I could stop in your town once more”

TLS, one page, 8 x 10.5, United States Senate letterhead, February 25, 1942. Letter to a doctor in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. In full: “Appreciate very much yours of the Twenty Second, giving us Paul Hewett’s name, and as I told you before, although I cannot promise him anything, I will be glad to give him every possible consideration when the time comes.” Truman also adds a brief handwritten postscript at the bottom, “Hope you’re well & happy. Wish I could stop in your town once more.” Letter appears to be mounted, and matted and framed to an overall size of 13.75 x 17. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, and mild toning, a bit heavier to edges. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
