Straight from the mind and pen of a madman comes this screed from one of the most dangerous men of the 20th Century - Charles Manson. Unsigned and handwritten in black ballpoint pen, the nine-page letter to an unknown recipient retains its original envelope from 1995. The failed musician and criminal architect of seven murders in the late 1960s rambles on about Hitler, the death of Brian Wilson and his music among other topics. It is written on both sides of five pages, with the last side being the letter to which he's responding, with that person's name torn off. Otherwise, it is in fine condition. This is typical Manson insanity: narcissistic, preachy and crude, with numerous spelling, syntax and grammatical errors. Also included is a photocopy of another long-winded Manson letter and interview.
