TLS as president, one page, 6.75 x 9, White House letterhead, January 16, 1965. Letter to California governor Edmund Brown. In part: “Your words of praise on my State of the Union speech were blessedly received in this office. I count your views as more than important and so I am cheered. I am always ready to talk with you at any time whenever you judge it timely. I have asked that your speech to the Legislature and your article in Harper’s be examined carefully. What you have learned as governor of California is certainly useful to this nation.” In fine condition. Elected in a landslide after finishing John F. Kennedy’s term, Johnson pushed his ‘Great Society’ plan in his 1965 State of the Union address, which he believed would better Americans’ quality of life.
