Description

ALS signed “F. Astaire,” one page both sides, 4.5 x 5.5, personal letterhead, May 16, 1979. Letter to John Winchester, in part: "Thanks for your nice note and birthday card. It was good to hear from you with news of the family. That Colt's name Steam Heat is a good one. Hope he runs hot. I have nothing to run right now but the three brood mares I own with Les Holt (50/50) all popped foals. Last year Sharp Curve and All Good Things (her daughter) got the job done and this year Don's Music came through. They look O.K. two fillies & a colt. Hope they get to the races. They should, Curve & Don's Music are stakes winners as you know." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope (missing the flap).
