Description

TLS as president signed “D. E.,” one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, October 14, 1954. Letter to Arthur Lodovichetti of the Denver White House, in full: "Next to owning Three Putt, I think the most satisfying birthday present of all is the knowledge that hereafter the phrase is to be applicable only at the Gettysburg farm, never again at the golf course. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the birthday party, and how eagerly I am looking forward to seeing Blackcap 13 TT in person, replete with expandable silver collar." In very good to fine condition, with faint toning and scattered light creasing. Eisenhower enjoyed a passion for golf, joining the Augusta National Golf Club upon his return from Europe and installing a putting green on the White House lawn during his presidency. An avid golfer both during and after his administration, Eisenhower was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2009.
