[QUOTE="Bobitron, post: 2427332, member: 25479"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Book Antiqua]June 16, 1933 Mr. James Starkweather Amherst Hotel New York City, New York USA Dear Sir; Buon giorno. I am pleased to accept you offer of a position on your brave journey into the pages of history. I am certain you will find my experience and particular skills to be of great use. I have a request that I have been considering for some time.
