5.5x3.5” envelope postmarked from “Phoenix & Los Angeles” on January 5, 1916 bears the handwriting of legendary American folk hero, Wyatt Earp. Earp arrived in Wichita in 1874 and went on to become the most famed survivor of the “Gunfight at the O.K. Corral” on October 26, 1881. Envelope is addressed entirely in Wyatt Earp’s hand to John H. Flood Jr. at “1135 West 7th St., Los Angeles, Cal.” Flood, a friend of both Wyatt and Josephine Earp, was a mining engineer who helped the old frontier lawman write with an autobiography, which was never published. Flood later produced a manuscript of Earp’s life entitled, Wyatt Earp. The return address is written vertically by Earp along the left edge of the envelope, “W.S. Earp, Vidal, Cal.” In fine condition. EX.
