Description

“I would have written you much earlier, but negotiations for the publishing of two of my own books were going on.”

TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, September 3, 1959. Truman sends a belated response to an offer. In part, “I would have written you much earlier, but negotiations for the publishing of two of my own books were going on…I am very sorry, indeed, that I can not do it. My contractual restrictions are too limiting.” Expected folds, a few creases, paperclip impression along top and a small notation, otherwise fine condition. R&R COA.
