Mr. Larry Meyer
5450 Cornell Avenue
Chicago 15, Illinois
Dear Mr. Meyer:
Yours December 25th.
I can only advise you that we did not get Byrd from the Athletics even though we offered more for Byrd than the Yankees actually gave for Byrd and Robinson, which is a mystery that other baseball people can't understand.
The Yankees did a good job of selling the Athletics on the skill of certain Minor League Players, even though we offered $150,000.00 cash and players for Byrd, which was a (sic) much as the Athletics received for Byrd and Robinson.
There is no understanding sometimes about these deals.
All good wishes,
Sincerely,
Frank C. Lane
