Description

Shingles on his birthday

TLS, one page, 7.5 x 10.5, personal letterhead, January 17, 1985. An ill Nixon sends a letter of thanks for birthday wishes. In part, “Since a rather severe case of shingles made my 72nd birthday a major media event, I wanted you to know that your thoughtful wire helped to make the day a special one for Mrs. Nixon and for me…My doctor…reassures me that while shingles is extremely painful, it is never fatal. Consequently, I expect to be around for a few more birthday celebrations in the future.” In very fine condition. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
