CHARLES A. LINDBERGH. TLS: "Charles A. Lindbergh", 1p,
8x11. Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, 1944 March 2. To Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court Frank Murphy. In full: "I am forwarding the two
autographed books under separate cover [not present]. I apologize for
this long delay in obtaining them. Our own copies are out of reach in storage,
and consequently, I have had to send the best I could obtain from the
publisher." The autographed books that CHARLES A. LINDBERGH sent to
Murphy were most likely copies of We, the story of his solo transatlantic
flight, written upon his return from France in 1927 and the only book he had
written up to that point. During WWII, Lindbergh was a consultant to the
Ford Motor Company and United Aircraft, for which he accompanied 50
combat missions in the Pacific. While working for Ford, Lindbergh, born in
Detroit, lived in Bloomfield Hills, a suburb of Detroit. Appointed by President
Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1940, FRANK MURPHY served as Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court until his death in 1949. Murphy had previously
served as Mayor of Detroit (1930-1933) and Governor of Michigan
(1936-1938). Lightly creased, slightly soiled right blank edge. Fine condition.
