Malcolm X autograph letter signed from Ethiopia, likely written in 1964 when he was visiting several African countries. Letter reads, ''Greetings from another Ancient Land that is fast leaping out of the past and into the future, even ahead of us / Bro[ther] Malcolm X''. Postcard is written to Gloria Owens, sister of Maceo X, the secretary of the Islamic temple in New York City to which Malcolm X had formerly been Minister. It was likely Maceo who told Malcolm X shortly before he left the Nation of Islam that its leaders asked Maceo to plant a bomb in Malcolm X's car. Postcard measures 5.75'' x 4.25''. Very good condition.
