Contents are brief comments of appreciation re Landon's campaign against FDR. On the back of the Sept letter, Swergal in 1960 typed his own comments from the Frye Hotel in Seattle, noting that his (Swergal's) mother was born in West Middlesex PA, as was Landon. There is an additional note on separate paper slip typed the same day. Swergal had written a column or article for the Seattle P-I on Kruschev. Near fine condition, gently folded. Both letters were in a 2-ring binder. One letter has the State of Kansas seal.
