WILLIAM PROXMIRE
The U.S. Senator from Wisconsin sends a short letter saying "You were generous and gracious to help us at our recent Milwaukee dinner"
Typed Letter signed: "Bill" as U.S. Senator, 1 page, 8x9¾. Washington, D.C., 1969 April 4. On Senate letterhead to Richard Weil, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In full: "You were generous and gracious to help us at our recent Milwaukee dinner. I very deeply appreciate this. Sincerely". William Proxmire (1915-2005), a Democrat, represented Wisconsin in the U.S. Senate (1957-1989). Proxmire chaired the Senate's Banking Committee for 8 years. Beginning in 1975, he announced annual "Golden Fleece" awards for the biggest waste of taxpayers' money. Examples included a $27,000 study of why inmates want to escape from prison and a $6,000, 17-page guide to consumers on how to buy Worcestershire Sauce. Proxmire has said that his favorite "Golden Fleece" was a grant to determine whether sunfish were more aggressive after consuming tequila or gin. Lightly creased. Three pinhead sized spots in lower left corner. Otherwise, fine condition.
