(LOT 1322)
Charles Comiskey Typed Signed Letter To Mr. George E. Mills Dated April, 24th, 1913 JSA LOA

Letter to Mils says, "Dear Sir: Your letter of receipt date received, and I would like to hear from you by return mail as to what your terms are for the coming season. With kindest regards, and thanking you for the interest on behalf of the White Sox and myself, I am yours very truly, Charles Comiskey." An incredible piece of history coming from Charles Comiskey, a key person in the formation of the American League, and was also founding owner of the Chicago White Sox. Comiskey Park, the White Sox' storied baseball stadium, was built under his guidance and named for him. Comiskey's reputation was permanently tarnished by his team's involvement in the Black Sox Scandal, although he was inducted as an executive into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1939. Accompanied by an LOA from JSA.
