Description: 36th President. Typed letter signed “Lyndon”, July 4, 1941, on uncommon “Lyndon Johnson for United States Senator” stationery, with an image of LBJ at top left, in full:Your loyalty during these last strenuous weeks has been an inspiration to me, and your letter of June twenty-fifth is an added expression of your confidence in me.Although your letter was received late, I tried to incorporate your suggestions into my last speeches. I hope you approved those last two.We still don’t know what the final count is, but I want you to know that your efforts and your kind interest will not be forgotten.Light damp staining at right edge.The 1941 United States Senate special election in Texas was held on June 28, 1941 to complete the unexpired term of Senator Morris Sheppard, who died in office on April 9. Interim Senator Andrew Jackson Houston did not run for re-election and died only two days before the election. The race was won by Governor Pappy O'Daniel with a plurality of the vote; no majority was required. O'Daniel very narrowly (by just over 1,000 votes) defeated U.S. Representative Lyndon B. Johnson, who won the seat after O'Daniel's retirement in 1948. The first such use of this stationery we can recall seeing.
