Richard Nixon, Baseball Fan
The 37th president of the United States, Richard
Nixon, was a diehard baseball fan and fond of receiving
world championship teams at the White House. (When
Nixon lost his bid for the presidency against John
F. Kennedy in 1960, he was reportedly offered the
job of baseball Commissioner.)
This letter, written to Yankee President Dan
Topping, was written during Nixon's first term
as Vice President.
