Harper Lee autograph letter signed, dated 29 January 1999, to her friend Doris Leapard. Lee thanks Leapard for the autograph of Vivian Malone, one of the first students to integrate the all white University of Alabama in 1963, shortly after publication of ''To Kill a Mockingbird''. Lee writes, ''...I shall treasure [the autograph] always. Looking back, it's incredible what people had to endure just for their basic rights. Today's young haven't a clue what their parents went through; they seem bored to hear about it...Nelle''. Fine condition. Accompanying envelope is very good.
