John Lennon handwritten letter to personal assistant Fred Seaman who was employed by John and Yoko during the final years of Lennon's life whilst they resided at the Dakota Apartments. Letter details instructions on procuring children's book for his son, Sean and one other personal errand. Text reads: ''Fred / Call Dr. Davies (Seans DR) and ask for name and publisher of 'the dentist tooth care book for children' which was in his office (we asked him once - but lost it) / then get the book from somewhere / 'jeans softner' to put in washing machine to soften jeans.'' All in Lennon's own hand. Included at top right corner is a note which reads ''Your Child's Teeth' / Steven J. Moss - parents guide to keeping them perfect / H. Mifflin '77'' presumably in the hand of Fred Seaman. Touching note showing Lennon's involvement in the care of Sean. Written in blue and green ink, on yellow legal note paper, measuring 8.5'' x 7.5''. Cut along top and bottom margins. White tape to back of top and bottom margins. Some staining and chipping as expected with a household note. With PSA/DNA certification.
