TLS, one page, 8 x 10, General Headquarters, Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers letterhead, August 11, 1948. Letter sending well wishes to a family friend. In full: “I have just learned from your son of your recent illness, and want to lose no time in sending my warm wishes for the speedy recovery of an old comrade-in-arms of my father’s. He often spoke to me of the gallant 40th Infantry for which he entertained the highest admiration, and I am confident that the spirit infused by you and your comrades into that regiment to enable it so brilliantly to meet its engagements in the Spanish-American War will provide you with the fortitude to carry on through your present illness.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. In very good condition, with a uniform shade of toning, horizontal fold affecting tops of several letters of signature, a couple of trivial edge chips, and some light damp staining to edges. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
