Description

Our first letter from the Maytag founder

Founder and chairman (1857-1937) of the Maytag Company, which eventually became the Maytag Corporation, which was acquired by the Whirlpool Corporation in 2006. Rare TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.25, The Maytag Company letterhead, November 19, 1925. Letter to Tim J. Campbell, in full: "There is a balance due on your subscription note to the Newton Hospital. We have come to the point where we are compelled to ask the subscribers to pay up these subscriptions. A few of us have been carrying this burden now for five years or more and creditors are insisting upon getting their money and we do not feel like asking them for further extension. Therefore, trust you can and will arrange to pay this balance promptly.” In fine condition, with some light creasing to the bottom blank area. This is the first letter from the washing machine mogul that we have ever offered.
