Typed letter written to his longtime friend in the music business. He mentions the “Sinatra tapes” a mutual friend sent him and “Big Band Albums” that he sent. He awaits his coming with “open arms” and “I will be in the Boston area by the time you get this”. Rarely seen jocularity, almost intimacy from Ted. He has signed it “Ted” in mint blue ink. Below, he has titled himself “Capt. Ted Williams” with some humor towards formality. A nice personal introspection into the personality of this great man. Written from his Islamorada, Florida home with original typed envelope, which was originally “Returned for Postage”.
