TLS signed “Lady Bird,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, Stonewall, Texas letterhead, February 13, 1970. The former first lady expresses her gratitude to former NASA administrator James Webb. In part: “How delighted I am that you will be able to be with us on February 24th to discuss the Library exhibit on Space. A day out of your busy life is a lot to ask, and I very much appreciate your lending us your time and talents…We want to save as much time as possible for the lively exchange of ideas I’m anticipating so eagerly at our meeting. You have played a vital part in shaping the important story that we would like to have brought to life in the exhibits. Our goal is to give visitors to the Library an insight into the excitement and challenge you shared in writing a chapter of progress.” Johnson has underlined “very much” for emphasis and added “and fondly” before her name. In fine condition, with upper right corner crease, paperclip impression to the top of the page, and light wrinkles. RRAuction COA.
