Final draft Autograph Letter Signed: "Ron" as Governor of
California, 1 page, 8½x3, (Sacramento, California), 1968 January 3. To
Robert W. Jackson, San Francisco. In full: "Thanks so much for
the roasted almonds. I'm hooked on them. It was good to hear from you
& I hope you had the best of holidays." Dated "1-3-68" in red ink by his
secretary, Cathy Davis, who also penned a diagonal line across the letter in red
ink when she typed this letter for mailing. Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) had
two careers: actor and politician. His first movie was Love is on the
Air (1937) and his 53rd and last film was The Killers (1964). In
1965, he wrote his autobiography, Where's the Rest of Me?, a line from
his role as Drake McHugh in King's Row (1942). Reagan left his job
hosting television's Death Valley Days during the 1965-1966 season, when
he entered politics. Elected Governor of California in 1966, he was
reelected in 1970. Reagan began his campaign for the presidency and narrowly
lost the 1976 Republican nomination to Gerald Ford. He was elected
President in 1980 and was reelected in 1984. After leaving office in 1989, he
wrote his second autobiography, An American Life. On February 6,
2001, Reagan became just the third U.S. President to reach the age of 90. Fine
condition.
