Reagan slyly encourages his biographer in “a little stretching [of] the truth”

ALS signed “Dutch,” one page, 4.5 x 5, May 26, 1967 (in another hand). Letter to an old friend concerning a book written about him. In part, “Evidently he’s doing a favorable book so let your conscience be your guide except where a little stretching the truth will help. Thanks for the good words about the TV show. I should get a reward for not losing my temper. All that anti-American blast was hard to take.” Two staple holes, horizontal fold and a few wrinkles, otherwise fine condition. COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
