ALS signed “Dutch,” one page, lightly-lined, 8.5 x 11, July 5, 1967. Handwritten draft letter from Governor Reagan addressed to “Slim,” breaking the news he will be unable to hire him. In full: “I wish there was something that could be done but unfortunately I’m trapped by my own campaign promises & an economy drive. This state was a big bureaucratic mess and we’ve reduced employees by almost 10% with more slated to go. There just is no way to justify taking an old friend or going outside the state with so many laid off here. I’m sure you know how much I regret this and wish it could be otherwise.” In fine condition, with a couple small ink notations. R&R COA.
