We offer a three page handwritten letter from 1967 when he was in boot camp at Camp Lejune. He writes to his future wife telling her that he misses her but worries about her and hopes she doesn’t do anything to hurt him. He signed the letter “Bob.” It comes with the original envelope. Very rare and very touching from a great ballplayer who died too young.
