Don Bradman. Original two page letter handwritten in ink by Bradman to ‘Mr Ford’ at Essex C.C.C.. Writing from his home at 2 Holden Street, Kensington Park, South Australia and dated 16th February 1949, Bradman expresses his thanks for congratulations on receiving his knighthood. He is unable to provide an autographed photograph, but is sending ‘a coloured sketch by Arthur Mailey which I think should serve your purpose very well’. The letter is nicely signed by Bradman. Some foxing, browning and fading, but all clearly legible. The pages may have been previously framed, with small adhesive marks to corners, otherwise in good condition.
