Scarce ALS signed “Jack K.,” one page both sides, 7 x 10.5, Stanford University letterhead, no date but circa 1940. Letter to Mr. Goldsmith. In full: “Thank you very much for sending me the issue of Foreign Policy Bulletin. I appreciate your interest very much. Hope to see you down South this winter as I expect to get back for Christmas.” In fine condition, with a few stray marks, a chip to one corner, and a trimmed left edge. Earlier in 1940, the soon-to-be Harvard grad published his senior thesis, Why England Slept, which became a best seller. After graduating and unsure of his next move, Kennedy enrolled in the politically conservative Stanford Graduate School of Business in the fall. He soon left the school and decided to join the Navy in 1941, making letters from his time at Stanford quite scarce. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA.
