In full: “I much wish that my wife and I could accept your delightful invitation to go to the Alumnae Luncheon on January 31st. We are leaving, however, that very morning for the south. Isn’t it dreadful that this modern life causes one to make plans so far in advance?” In very good condition, with mild toning from previous framing, faint mailing fold touching one letter of signature, and a few scattered spots and discolorations. LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
