TLS signed “D. E.,” one page, 7 x 10.5, personal letterhead, August 24, 1958. Letter to General Maxwell Taylor. In part: “Just about this time last year I wrote you a note to express, as I do now, my felicitations on your birthday anniversary. But she adds that optimistically I expressed the hope that the year just passed would be relatively free of crises. I seem to have made one of the greatest misstatements of the year. So on this August twenty-sixth I shall make no predictions but simply reiterate my good wishes for your happiness and health.” The previous year, on August 26, 1957, the Soviet Union announced a successful test of intercontinental ballistic missile. In fine condition, with staple hole to top left, and a small area of toning next to signature from adhesive remnant on reverse.
