Handwritten note written and signed by President of the United States, Governor of California and screen actor Ronald Reagan. This note, written in Reagan's own hand, is to an "old friend" Al E. Schwabacher and is signed "Dutch", his nickname typically reserved for his close friends. Reagan obviously received numerous letters from people claiming to be old friends of his, and written at the top is a note to his personal assistant Kathy Davis that Says, "Kathy - this one really is an old friend". Reagan thanks the friend for the grapefruit gift and jokes that its not a political bribe.
Reagan would often write notes like this in answer to letters and gifts he received and hand them to Ms Davis who would then type them up for the then Governor Reagan and send the completed letter to the recipient on behalf of Reagan.
The letter reads in "Dear Al - Thanks very much for the grape fruit - I accept with full knowledge it isn't a political bribe. Seriously they are delicious & appreciated. Nancy & I hope to and dream that one of the these days the pace will let up and we can have that dinner in S.F. Again. Thanks and All The Best Dutch"
A very unique and personal letter from the man who would later lead the Republican party and become President of the United States for two terms during the 1980's. On the reverse Ms. Davis asked Governor Reagan, "do you call Mr. Schwabacher Al?"
This letter was acquired by us directly from Reagan's Kathy Davis's personal collection and comes with our 100% guarantee of authenticity.

Lori:
Thank you ever so much for the Presidential Inaugural Invitation. I was moved because it means so very much to me. I was in Washington D.C. last year during the inauguration, however, I had been hoping to eventually obtain something this special (I even wrote to my Congressman and others). Again, thank you so much and may you have continued success in your business in the coming years.

Lori,
The poster arrived late yesterday afternoon. It is hanging on my wall, and it looks absolutely fantastic! I smile when I see the President staring down at me as I am sitting at my desk.
Thanks so much! Well done!

I appreciate everything - the speedy response, the customer service, and of course, the product itself. Often, I'm skeptical and think that online testimonials only post the positive feedback, or even make up feedback. I can tell from the service I received that not only were these testimonials legitimate (just like your products), but it is likely they are all so positive because I can't imagine you getting a negative review.
Thank you so much. It was a pleasure working with you. This is how customer service is supposed to look and it is so refreshing! I'll certainly be back to purchase additional gifts for my history-buff boyfriend in the future.

Hi Lori & Team
I have purchased items from you over the years, since what I guess was your beginning days.
All items come perfect - they are what you say - I appreciate each purchase.
Is there a website where I can say “ Lori and her team are amazing as are the items I purchase”….or something similar. If so, I’m happy to do that !!
All my best,

Lori & Steve--
I want to say many, many thanks for the way you handled my Hoover item consignment. You listed it promptly, described it in a way that accurately explained its quality and value, and sold it quickly at a top price--far beyond my expectations.
I couldn't be happier and would recommend you highly to anyone who wants to consign items with Lori Ferber Collectibles.
Thanks again!
