Description

While Mamie’s on a spree at the supermarket, Ike digs into a Christmas present: “But around lunch time I got hungry - - so Moaney opened your gift, and I had a very happy time.”

TLS signed “D.E.,” one page, 7 x 10.5, December 22, 1961. A chatty thank you letter to Irving Geist. In part: “Just a little story to tell you how welcome your Christmas gift was. When we arrived here yesterday the cupboard (by Mamie’s instructions) was really bare. She wanted to go to the supermarket and indulge herself in the luxury of buying just what she wanted. But around lunch time I got hungry - - and Mamie was in the midst of her shopping spree. So Moaney opened your gift, and I had a very happy time. At the same time I envisioned all the other delights in the package….” In fine condition. COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
