In den Warenkorbunbound. Outstanding and important letter, 4 pages, each two-page spread measuring 5.25 x 7.75 inches, New York, April 29, 1951. Written to liberal New York State Supreme Court Justice and author Bernard L. Shintag, in small part: ".In returning this masterful book - I thank you most sincerely for helping to increase my modest k…nowledge of the law and the philosophies which govern - and sometimes misgovern - its operations. The law is a dynamic and not a static fact of life. Therefore its interpretation depends largely on the Judges who interpret it. As a citizen, I am grateful for such judges as Holmes, Brandeis, Frankfurter, Cardoza and Shientag." Much more great content. At the time this letter was written, Sarnoff was arguably one of the most powerful men in the United States. He controlled NBC and RCA with an iron fist and was nicknamed "The General" due to his staunch hands-on conservative policies. It is ironic that he would be grateful to four of the most liberal Justices to have ever served on the United Supreme Court, especially when their views on Antitrust were a constant threat to his media empire. Tiny chip partially affecting one word on the second page; staple holes at the edge of the natural fold. Very good(-) condition. Russian-born American pioneer businessman who founded the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) and the Radio Corporation of America (RCA).

In den WarenkorbThis giant of the telecommunications world headed RCA (Radio Corporation of America) from 1919 to 1970 -- but began as a lowly Belarus immigrant office boy in 1907 with the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America in New York, working his way up the radio and television ladder. TLS, 1p, 8½" X 11", New York, NY, 1966 May 10.… Addressed to Arnold F. Gates, Literary Editor of the Lincoln Herald (1914-93, noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar). Near fine. On "Radio Corporation of America" letterhead, Sarnoff discusses a biography of him that Eugene Lyons had authored: "Thanks you for your kind letter. and the reprint of your excellent review of my biography which appeared in the 'Lincoln Herald.' I am naturally pleased that you found the book so rewarding, and I appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing to me." (Early in 1966 Harper & Row had published a book by Sarnoff's cousin Eugene Lyons, "David Sarnoff: A Biography.") Large bold signature in blue ink. Accompanied by a fine glossy 9" X 7" black and white news agency photograph (International News Photos), a candid closeup of Sarnoff smiling alongside a beauty contestant winner. Caption at bottom, which dates this 23 April 1956, describes the scene: "David Sarnoff, RCA chairman and chairman of the National Security Training Commission, names Barbara Lyman, Washington Cherry Blossom Queen, an honorary colonel in the Washington Army Reserve at a kick-off luncheon for military reserve week.".
