About this Item

Description:

CHARLES LINDBERGH (1902-1974). Lindbergh was the first man to fly solo and non-stop across the Atlantic. His 1927 flight to Paris in The Spirit of St. Louis took him thirty-three hours and created a hero. His later life was controversial, as his first child was kidnapped and Lindbergh advocated American neutrality during World War II. ALS. 2pg. 5 ¾" x 7 ½". November 27, 1932. New York. An autograph letter signed "C.A. Lindbergh" to C. P. Ryman of Eastern Air Transport. The famous aviator penned: "I want to thank you for the cooperation Dr. Wychoff has received from Eastern Air Transport in getting his specimens up from Miami. He tells me that they arrive in excellent condition. I believe that it is of definite advantage to the airlines whenever they can render a service of this kind, which is apparently not possible in any other way. I understand that the research Dr. Wychoff is carrying on necessitates that his material arrive in considerably less time than the train takes from Miami." It is written on two separate sheets; there is light toning and it is accompanied by the original envelope in Lindbergh's handwriting. Seller Inventory # 5338
