James Naismith Handwritten 3 Page Letter signed James Naismith
“I wish you would tell the good people of Vinland how much that Sunday on the lawn has meant to me ever since leaving America,” so writes the father of basketball and World War I serviceman, Jim Naismith, on November 26th, 1917, as he stayed in France. Three-page handwritten and signed letter talks of how much the Physical Education-enthusiast liked the French people, how they had suffered, and sends along in the Paris-postmarked envelope a “Litany for use during war” (with handwritten notes). Pages have slight tears where creases from folds have worn, otherwise has held up very well.
