This series consists of examples of cards and letters that were sent to the general public in response to their mail to President Gerald Ford and First Lady Betty Ford. Topics include Betty Ford’s 60 Minutes interview, breast cancer surgery, participation in citizens band (CB) radio, prayer for Dr. Maurice Sage, and the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA).
