Description

Buddy Holly Handwritten Letter. Undated letter on Sullivan Signs business stationery, handwritten by Holly in blue ballpoint. It reads: "Due to unforseen T.V. programs in New York we will be unable to play for you on Aug. (1st or 3rd), and hereby cancel our contracts with you. Thanks for your consideration. Regards, Buddy Holly." This is a truly historical letter that helped make Buddy a phenomenal success when he began doing television appearances. The letter is in Very Fine condition with a horizontal fold crease, a 1.5" tear near the lower right edge, and a 1" tear near the upper left edge -- neither of which affect the handwriting, which is bold, clear, and unfaded. With COA from Maria Elena Holly.
