RICHARD M. NIXON - TYPED LETTER SIGNED - CUSTOM FRAMED

Rare letter addressed to Col. Frank M. Brandstetter (1912–2011), a legendary hotelier, corporate executive, U. S. Army intelligence officer, who owned a world-renowned resort in Acapulco, Las Brisas. The letter is as follows:

Nixon: “I want you to know how much I appreciated your thoughtfulness in calling my office to express your concern during my recent bout with the flu and your sending me some reading material while I recuperate. I found it amusing that the current nationwide epidemic has been diagnosed as ‘the Russian flu.’ I suppose some might say that it was inevitable that my case would therefore be particularly severe! However, as a result of excellent care at the Miami Heart Institute and a strong constitution, I am now well on the way to a complete recovery.”
