Description

TLS, one page, 6.25 x 8.5, personal letterhead, July 29, 1969. Letter to Vice President Spiro T. Agnew. In part: “I did enjoy my visit with John at the Embassy and was also able to travel 2,000 miles through Austria, Germany, and parts of England.” In a lengthy handwritten postscript initialed ”MDE,” she adds, “I was at the White House when we saw you on television—you warmed my heart when you said General Eisenhower had started this moon trip—so few give him credit for what he did but we knew and that was enough.” In fine condition. An excellent letter sent just days after the Apollo 11 crew returned safely to earth as international heroes. Originates from the personal estate of Spiro Agnew. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
