Two items: a glossy 8 x 10 head-and-shoulders portrait of Salk, signed in black felt tip, "Jonas Salk"; and an interesting TLS signed "Albert B. Sabin," one page, 8.5 x 11, Medical University of South Carolina letterhead, January 25, 1979, to General Lyman Lemnitzer forwarding an article, in part: "Our mutual friend, General Mark Clark gave me your address after he read the enclosed article that I wrote last August…Since I mentioned your name in it, it was my intention to send you a copy prior to publication…General Clark who agrees that there is a current need for a U. S. military alliance in the Middle East and for stationing sufficient U. S. troops in the area to constitute an effective deterrent force, nevertheless, believes that nothing can be done about it because of present attitudes in the executive and legislative branches of the government." Accompanied by the forwarded article and a carbon of Lemnitzer's reply. In fine condition, with three binder dings to the left edge of the Salk photo.
