Donald Trump
Brief handwritten note in black felt tip, "Michael—Thanks! Donald Trump," on a TLS addressed to him by Michael Drake, one page, 8.5 x 11, July 22, 1998. Drake's letter, in part: "While watching the news last night I saw the story about the elderly woman in Atlantic City who wouldn't sell you her house so that you could have room to expand your casino. They made references to this being a classic case of David vs Goliath. The woman was portrayed as a kindly little old lady and you were portrayed as a ruthless robber baron. What garbage…It seems that people have some type of knee jerk reaction that whenever you do something you are only looking out for yourself, but i[t] seems very clear to me that you truly care about the communities you do business in." Ballpoint notation indicates that Trump signed the letter on July 30, 1998. In fine condition.
