Important letter from Golda Meir to Moshe Sharett. 1953.
Important letter from Golda Meir to Moshe Sharett regarding the appointment of Pinchas Lavon as Minister of Defense in 1953.
[1] letterhead from the Minstry of Labor. 15.5x22 cm. Typewritten with her signature.
Written in December 1953, after Ben Gurion's resignation as Prime Minister but before Moshe Sharett's official appointment to the post. In this letter, Golda expresses her hesitations about Pinchas Lavon's suitability for Minister of Defense, conflicting with Ben Gurion's opinion. Lavon was eventually appointed to the post about a month after this letter was written.
Filing holes. Fold marks. Very fine condition.
