The “captious” commissioner, Kenesaw Landis, typed this letter to Mel Allen, bringing in to question Allen’s correspondence performance. A doozy, it reads, “At the risk of being considered captious… tell me, Mel Allen, going back to the way you handled my records and including this “Special Delivery Air Mail” thing, did you ever hear of such a sloppy performance in your life?” He signs twice, with handwritten “Good wishes to you, Kenesaw.” Mint condition. Includes LOA.
