Collection of three items consisting of an ALS, a TLS, and a signed book. The letters date from 1983, and are to David McCullough, who was attempting to interview Lindbergh for a Smithsonian television series. The typed letter, dated February 15, 1983, reads, in part: “I do not usually give interviews and do not wish to be interviewed on camera for the new Smithsonian television series which has a segment on some of our early pioneer flights in the 30s. However, I have already had several letters from the Smithsonian Institution about the project and have seen a proposed draft of the segment of the series that deals with my husband’s and my survey flights to the Orient and across the Atlantic in our Lockheed Sirius plane (now happily housed in the Air and Space Museum in Washington)…I would be glad to help those engaged in this project.” The hardcover copy of Listen! The Wind, is signed and inscribed on the first free end page, “For Elizabeth Brownstein, Gratefully, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, November 25th, 1983, Washington, D. C.” The page is detached from the book. Also included is a copy of a McCullough letter to Lindbergh, and a photocopy of another Lindbergh letter. In overall fine condition, with signed page detached from book, as well as some toning to pages, and a weak spine. RR Auction COA.
