May 18, 1973Dear Mr. Trudeau:
I would consider it a privilege to be able to obtain
the original drawing of the attached cartoon.
Needless to say, it has a very special meaning to
me and would be a good addition to the other
originals that I have received through the years.
If you are able to forward the original, would it be
possible for you to mail it to my home address:
330 Chesapeake Drive, Great Falls, Virginia 22066.
Many thanks.
Yours sincerely,
