Lyndon B. Johnson 1969 Typed Letter Signed - Just One Week After Leaving Office

36th President. Typed letter signed “Lyndon B. Johnson”, January 27, 1969, personal stationery, to Dorothye Scott in Washington, D.C., in full:

Thank you for your sweet, sweet letter.

We have had delightful, restful, sunny days since reaching home, and it has been wonderful.

I am glad to think of you carrying on in the Senate, and I shall not forget that you were a strong right arm to me during my years there.

My best wishes always.

Accompanied by original mailing envelope.

Mailing fold, some light wear, else fine.

Dorothye Scott joined Senate staff as an administrative assistant to the Democratic Party secretary in 1945. Scott later worked for two secretaries of the Senate, providing support to the Senate’s chief administrative officer. In these positions, Scott worked closely with many of the colorful figures and power brokers of the era, including Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson.

A nearly impossible time period to find an LBJ signed letter during.
