Documents written by former President Ronald Reagan revealing a closer look at the president’s life and beliefs have gone up for sale.
The Raab Collection based in Ardmore, Pennsylvania lists eight Reagan letters, one signed document and a signed photograph for a total estimated value of $80,000.
The documents touch on Reagan’s faith, friendships and crisis-handling during various phases of his life as an actor, governor and president. The letters were written between the years 1952 and 1993, the organization said.
Nathan Raab, historical documents expert and president of The Raab Collection, as well as the author of "The Hunt for History," told FOX Business the firm has carried many important letters from Reagan over the years.
Raab said letters such as these show a candid side of American presidents that would not otherwise have been known or seen.

I wonder why these wouldn’t be donated (or sold at less) to the Reagan Library. I wouldn’t put it past the evil left to buy them and then suddenly be perfectly fine with burning books.
Obviously stashed presidential records illegally.
Jail posthumous or at least change the record.
That is really tempting. Could leave it to the heirs, will be worth a lot more in 20 years.

There are some really terrific Jewish Deli’s in Ardmore. I worked on City Line and would take colleagues there....

My pleasure.
I saw a video where the host pulled note cards that were in Reagan’s desk with jokes written on them. The host had various comedians read and react to the jokes. It was pretty good - and the comedians seemed liked they genuinely thought they were funny. Of course I can’t find it now.
Well - here’s a short with Drew Cary:

I wonder how much Brandon’s rare and personal classified documents will go for in an auction.
