Item Details
Description
(1896 - 1984) American Army general, commanded the landings at Salerno and Anzio against the forces of Kesselring. Three T.Ls.S. with varying content, the first on Headquarters of the Far East Command letterhead, May 17, 1952, to Laurence Cotterell of the publishers Harrap & Co. sending thanks for taking care of royalties. Wrinkled, stamp at top, good. Along with another T.L.S. 1p. 4to., on Citadel letterhead, Mar. 1, 1966, to Herbert Watson, sending autographs [not present]; and May 17, 1979, also on Citadel letterhead to Tiny May Walton, in part: "...Your letter...has been received and I really can't do justice to your request. It certainly is an interesting aspect on your project about me in World War II. I think you wrote to the wrong fellow, if you wanted someone who enjoyed, for example, opera. I did at one time to a certain extent, but after fighting throughout the length of Italy and having in the course of the fighting damaged or destroyed some opera houses, I had to return when they were reconstructed...After fighting in Italy, I was the American Occupation Commander and High Commissioner in Austria...After signing the Korean Armistice, I retired...". Three pieces, very good.
