Dwight Eisenhower typed letter signed as President. Letter is addressed to Pennsylvanian politician Walter Alessandroni and dated 10 February 1955. Letter reads in part, "…come to an informal stag dinner…Because of the informality of the occasion, I suggest that we meet at the White House about half past seven, have a reasonably early dinner, and devote the evening to a general chat…I shall probably wear a black tie, but business suit will be entirely appropriate…[signed] Dwight Eisenhower / P.S. As a personal favor to me, would you keep this reasonably confidential until after the dinner has been held?". Single page letter on his personal White House stationery measures 7.25" x 10.25". Toning, mounting to paper board, and some fading to signature. Very good.
