[Rarebooks] fs: Signed Nixon material

[Back Creek Books]

Greetings,

We offer:
~
Small cache of Richard Nixon signatures, with one TLS signed by John D. 
Ehrlichmann:
1) Copy of Nixon's "Six Crises," inscribed to a Secret Service agent. 
Book is not first edition and lacks the dust jacket, has some soil and 
rubs to exterior.
2) Two of Nixon's calling cards signed "Best wishes from / Dick Nixon". 
Both cards in very good condition with slight age toning towards edges.
3) TLS on Nixon's Vice-Presidential stationery, dated January 19, 1961, 
addressed to same Secret Service agent noted above and discussing his 
recent loss in the presidential election of 1960 and his plans for the 
future. Fine, with two folds.
4) TLS on Nixon's private stationery, dated April 23, 1962, thanking a 
couple who were then sponsoring his campaign for Governor of California. 
Good condition with some adhesion residue on back of letter, two folds.
5) TLS from John D. Erhlichmann on Nixon's stationery as 
President-Elect, dated December 16, 1968, and addressed to same Secret 
Service agent noted previously. This letter from Erhlichmann thanks said 
agent for help during Nixon's first cabinet meeting, held at the 
Shoreham Hotel in Washington a week earlier. Near fine with a shallow 
chip to right margin, slight age toning at top and bottom edges, two folds.

The inscription and signature in the copy of "Six Crises" are direct 
from Nixon's hand, but I am certain that items 2, 3, and 4 above are 
autopen signatures.

$200 for the lot, ppd.
