TLS signed “Lyndon,” one page, 7 x 9, The Vice President letterhead, June 15, 1963. Letter to Ben Oehlert, in part: "Your thoughtfulness regarding the death of our pet, Little Beagle, is deeply appreciated. He certainly considered himself as a part of the Johnson family, and I guess we agreed that he was." In fine condition.
After graduating from the Wharton School and the University of Pennsylvania School of Law, Oehlert (1909-1985) went into private practice and was later hired by the Department of State to work in the Mexican Claims Agency. He spent several years working in top offices for Coca-Cola, W. R. Grace & Co., and the Minute Maid Company before being appointed by President Lyndon B. Johnson to become Ambassador to Pakistan in 1967, a post he held until his retirement in 1969.
