ALS in pencil, signed “Jack,” four pages, 5.75 x 3.75, April 15, 1964. Letter to his brother-in-law, Harold Kaminsky. In part: “You still must carry on with your livelihood, and please for the children’s sake and Eileen’s, you must carry on regardless of my unfortunate situation. What I mean is, that when you have time to write, then you do just that; and you don’t necessarily have to send me many letters to show your feelings for me, because I know how you feel about me.” Attractively triple-matted and framed with an image of Ruby shooting Oswald to an overall size of 27.5 x 17.5. In overall fine condition. A desirable letter written as Ruby contemplates the fate of himself and his family—just one month prior, on March 14, 1964, Ruby had been found guilty of the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald and sentenced to death; this decision was overturned two years later in appellate court, but Ruby died of a pulmonary embolism in 1967 while awaiting a retrial. Oversized.
