Description

Early letter from the future president: “I have been only to Juarez, hardly a proper perspective for me”

ALS signed “Much love, Bill,” two pages, 5 x 8, September 12 [1969]. Letter to Sharon Caudle. In full: “I was ecstatic when Aznavour came. It has been played and played since arrival this afternoon. Maybe you and I can go to Mexico sometime (even if it takes 5 or 10 years to arrange) and I will be seeing it with a quasi-native. Mexico has always seemed an almost mystically fascinating place to me. And I have been only to Juarez, hardly a proper perspective for me. You can write to me at home for a while—Take care. Best to your Dad—Thanks again, so much, for the lovely record.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Clinton’s hand, and signed in the return address area, “W. J. Clinton.” On the eve of Clinton departing for Oxford from Arkansas, he continues his correspondence with his love interest, a relationship that he carried with him to Yale University, where he would eventually meet and marry his future wife, Hillary Rodham. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
