I thought we established a rule that you must provide a transcript whenever posting handwritten letters/autographs?

Here's what I got:

June 7, 1954

Dear Mr. Ellis,

Enclosed find tickets for you and Mrs. Ellis for the Yale game on the 16th.

My thanks for your very kind letter - I appreciate your sentiments, perhaps doubly so at this time, as I am leaving Harvard at the close of the season.

I have enjoyed our association and your support thru good days and bad.

Mrs. McInnis joins me in sending every good wish to you both.

Sincerely,
“Stuffy”

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Thanks Darren. A good rule that I was unaware of. Much appreciated for the help.

Oh, I was just being facetious. It was a 'rule' I somewhat humorously suggested a while back to save anyone reading a thread like this some time.

This has nothing to do with the original post but figured I wouldn’t clutter up the board.

For those who know Ban Johnson autographs, does this letter look good?

My only advice is never for any reason ask that seller any questions during the auction.
