Autograph letter, in ink, signed with initials. A one-page holographic letter and mock basketball ticket - from a fan who caught Bruce’s act in Baltimore in February 1961. Probably retained by Bruce because it skillfully satirizes his act. “I thought you might be interested in a basketball game we going to have…” with a ticket drawn at the bottom for a basketball game between the Ku Klux Klan and Knights of Columbus, sponsored by the NAACP to benefit the Jewish Relief Fund, with Russian referees and “beer served by Baptists.”
