Portrait is in nice condition and the letter, dated April 1940, translates to "For your friendly congratulations to my birthday, I am very pleased and I would like to have you here. With my warm heart, thank you very much. Heil Hitler! E. Milch, General". Letter is clearly legible with Luftwaffe stamp on top left of letter. Very good condition. From the Michael Clifton collection. Frame size: 17 7/8" x 12 1/8", Photo: 3" x 5", Document: 5 3/8" x 3 3/4".
