ANS signed “Al Shepard,” one page, 8 x 10.5, Department of the Air Force letterhead, no date. Note written by Shepard at the bottom of a memo to Master Sergeant Joe Garino, stamp-dated August 18, 1967. Memo reads, in part “The attached DAF, Hq., 1100th Air Base Wing, Special Order AA-1955, 1 September 1967, announcing your promotion to Master Sergeant, is forwarded for your personal file.” At the bottom, Shepard writes, “Joe—Sorry, this won’t impress your hand ball opponents—congrats!” In fine condition, with two punch and staple holes to top edge and a bit of trivial soiling. Accompanied by a photocopy of a letter of provenance from Garino.
