Dwight D. Eisenhower. Free frank and censor endorsement as Supreme Allied Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force, signed "Dwight Eisenhower" with "Free" in his hand at top right on legal-size Officer Courier service cover to Mrs. Eisenhower in Washington D.C. and forwarded to Ft. Benning Ga., red Army Examiner's handstamp, Dec. 10, 1944 receiving datestamp, with original autograph letter signed "Ike" to "Darling"

VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE WORLD WAR II COVER FROM GENERAL DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER TO HIS WIFE, SIGNED AS CENSOR AND AS A FREE FRANK, WITH THE ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED "IKE".

Eisenhower's signature on this cover containing a letter to his wife served double duty, as both a censor's marking and free frank. The letter was written six months after the Normandy invasion and states "He will tell you of my impending trip home -- there are so many complications involved that it would take me hours to try to write about them." (not to mention military secrecy).

Ex Dr. Robertson
