Description

John Glenn

TLS signed “J. H. Glenn, Jr,” one page, 7.5 x 9.5, January 15, 1965. Letter to an admirer concerning his health and fitness after suffering a head injury. In part, “I certainly appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness in trying to help me recover from my recent medical difficulty. Plain time, however, is the only treatment that was effective in my case since my difficulty came just from a blow on the head and just as the doctors predicted, gradual recovery was effected over several months. My problem was not related to Meniere’s syndrome or to any of the allergies or sickness causing balance problems.” Nicely cloth-matted and framed by Gallery of History with a color portrait of Glenn and a biographical plaque to an overall size of 26.5 x 27.5. Creasing and dampstaining along right side, otherwise fine condition. One week later, Glenn would retire from the service and embark on a business career. Pre-certified Steve Zarelli and RR Auction COA.
