Just listed on eBay, humorous get well card sent to Alan Shepard by his fellow shipmates while recovering from the Mumps at the U.S. Naval Hospital, Annapolis, MD. (1944). |

Neat item.Looking at the envelope addressed to Shepard by Louise, it becomes pretty evident who was signing some of his fan mail in later years. |

Many thanks for the kind comment, Chuck.That's interesting Steve. I'd like to see some of those. Contact me if you would like more Mrs. Shepard exemplars. I have about 40 handwritten addressed letters to Shep. |

Interesting that Louise Shepard also contributed some 'secretarial' autographs on mail/photos/lithos for her husband. Was this unique, or did other spouses indulge?
