Richard Nixon TLS as President
"WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS BY THE AUCTIONEER ONCE ALL BIDS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED TO DETERMINE THE WINNER FOR EACH LOT."
President Richard Nixon typed letter signed to conservative Congressman Bob Wilson. Composed on White House stationery and dated 11 May 1972, Nixon thanks Congressman Wilson for his support of the Vietnam peace proposal presented days earlier at Nixon's re-election conference. In part: ''It was most encouraging to learn of your forceful expression of support of the peace proposals I presented to the Nation this past Monday evening. Acceptance of these proposals, I believe, will bring an end to the killing, a return of our prisoners of war, a withdrawal of all forces with honor, and continued progress toward peace for all countries that have suffered for so long in this conflict. I want you to know that you have my deepest gratitude and warmest appreciation for your support of these objectives…'' Framed & matted with clipped signatures of both the President & first lady as well as a photograph and two plaques. Measures 23.25'' x 23'' overall. Fine condition.
