Two items: a TLS signed “Charles,” one onionskin page, 8.5 x 11, dated July 18, 1966, addressed to Lucile Butler, in full: “Absence abroad and constant travelling is responsible for this late reply to your June 18th letter. I picked up mail during a one-night stop at my home in Connecticut last week. Many thanks for the clipping about Father. I read it with interest, and am sending it to Professor Larson for possible use in connection with the biography. Eva has written me about Uncle Frank, and I too have been greatly worried about him. I sent a note, but am not sure he was in condition to receive it. I am very glad I went to Crosby to see him during my trip to Minnesota earlier this year. He was then having trouble with his eye, but appeared to be in good condition otherwise and looking forward to complete recovery in the near future. I leave for South America Friday.” The second item is a first edition of a book about his father Charles August Lindbergh, entitled Lindbergh of Minnesota: A Political Biography, hardcover with dust jacket, signed on the title page in black felt tip, “Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr.,” as well as by the author in blue ballpoint, “Bruce L. Larson,” who also signs and inscribes the half-title page. In overall fine condition, with a diagonal crease to the right side of the letter. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Lindbergh’s signature in the book is a rather interesting example, as he adds “Jr.” to distinguish himself from the subject of the biography. The senior Lindbergh served as one of Minnesota’s congressmen in the House of Representatives for a period of ten years, from 1907 to 1917. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
