As a Martha collector I would caution about the letter... if you notice, there are initials just below the signature, which indicates that the letter was signed by an assistant or secretary. (a once common business practice) Comparing that signature to several others I have it's close; but no cigar. It's a very nice bundle of collectibles however. <BR/><BR/>I have to agree with your anonymous reader..
