ALS signed “George,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, January 16, 1976. Letter to a friend named Henry, in regards to comments made about Bush’s new position as director of the Central Intelligence Agency. In full, “Someone (Jim Hewgley) sent me the comments you made about my new job. I just want to say ‘thanks’ for those generous words. I do regret a little being out of politics, but that is all overcome by the challenge of this tough but important new job. I know I can do it, and I know it must be done. I expect we Bushes may have had inculcated with us the same sense of service that your public life has exemplified-I hope so anyway-Again, my thanks, kind words and real friendship count these days.” In fine condition, with two light horizontal mailing folds and a pencil notation to top right. Bush would hold this post for almost a year, then return to politics running for president in 1980, eventually becoming Ronald Reagan’s running mate.
