About This Item
TLS. 1pg. 6 ¾” x 9”. July 22, 1969. Washington, DC. A typed letter signed “RN” as President to E. Perkins McGuire, affectionately referred to as “Perk:” “Before departing on our round-the-world trip, I wanted you to know that Pat and I are both pleased to learn that you are progressing rapidly since your recent hospitalization and that you are now back at your desk on a part-time basis. This is good news indeed. Although there is always a tendency to overdo, and taking it easy is sometimes the hardest advice to follow, I hope you’re abiding by your doctor’s orders and following a more relaxed schedule during your period of recuperation.” Perkins served as the Assistant Secretary of Defense under President Eisenhower, and was appointed by Nixon to be Chairman of the Commission on Government Procurement. Typed just two days after the Apollo 11 Moon landing on White House letterhead, the letter is in very fine condition.
