From the November 19, 2006 Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles Sale:
365. Reagan, Ronald. Typed Letter Signed ("Ron") as Governor, with holograph postscript, on "Governor's Office" letterhead watermarked with the California state seal, Sacramento, 3 Jan. 1972. Fine. To business executive Charles Broska, thanking him for his gift of a portfolio and sending best wishes for the New Year. He adds a handwritten note, "P.S. I never thought I'd be in a job where I wore out brief cases but I do." Lot was "Unsold"

Now being offered on eBay:
Amusing handwritten note to a letter from Governor Reagan to my Uncle. They corresponded for many years and this is one of the originally signed letters of my Uncle's collection. The note says: P.S. I never thought I'd be in a job where I wore out brief cases, but I do. Ron

Great memory you have there, Herman. It really leaves me scratching my head when I think what people will do to try to make a few extra bucks. The seller's ID is gmocbiz
Yes, I have a great memory, Steve, but it was one of my eBay buyers who pointed it out to me.
Give him everyone's thanks.
The TLS with the added "Ron" is no longer on eBay: "This listing (330684254631) has been removed, or this item is not available."
You think the original intent was to make a "cut" out of the bottom of the letter... essentially making two Reagan signed items out of one? But when the fake added "Ron" failed to look convincing, he just kept it together and tried to unload the whole thing?
