1974, July 12: Letter from Jed to G&H

Another handwritten letter from me on clown-and-balloons stationery. In this version of the stationery, though, the balloons are preprinted colored circles, not stickers.

The return address sticker says it’s from “J. Hartman”; Peter and Marcy must have gotten special return address stickers for me and Jay, in addition to the ones they used that said “Peter & Marcy Hartman.”

Written in block capitals as usual, but somewhat smaller ones than in my previous letters.

AND THEN XXX THEY

For some followup to this, see next letter.
