Rare handwritten, signed letter on either of an 8.5 x 11-inch sheet of off-white paper, spouting some of his pseudo-spiritual, philosophical nonsense. Published in the illustration section of a true crime book I wrote and published in 2019. In good condition, with mailing folds and a minor stain in one spot, made by the cult leader himself. Charles Manson, infamous leader of the so-called Manson Family, was convicted of ordering the murders of actress Sharon Tate, and Leno and Rosemary LaBianca in the 1960s, as part of a deranged fantasy involving a race war he called Helter Skelter.
