Rare Collection of Letters/Envelopes From David Berkowitz

BERKOWITZ, David  (1953-    )  Murderer, confessed to killing six people and wounding more in the New York City area during the 1970’s.  Known as the “Son of Sam” and “The 44 Caliber Killer”.  Berkowitz was sentenced to six life sentences, a maximum of 365 years in prison. Rare collection of 16 handwritten letters consisting of a total of 47 pages, along with 11 of the original matching envelopes. Of the eleven envelopes, 9 bear the signature of David Berkowitz in block letters with most having his full prison number and return address in his hand.  A very lengthy correspondence to a collector in Maspeth, New York.  Letters start Dec.15, 1987 through Jan. 22, 1992. This collection covers a very wide range of conversations. The following are just some of the comments Berkowitz writes:

“sure used panties smell nice and yes I’d be the laughing stock of the prison if she sent those things. In the Post the headlines ‘Sam Sniffs’ ”.
“Thanks for the photo of  Blackie the Cat, hey I thought they didn’t allow niggers in Maspeth”
“Maybe by the year 2000 you wouldn’t be able to recognize this country. I told you about the coming race riots”
“by this summer it could be a bloodshed. Make sure that you and Pissy Cat have a place to go. Maybe you should buy an Orthodox Jew outfit and hide up here in the Catskills”

“I was a mixed up kid then, afterwards I became a mixed up adult. I don’t see how I survived without having a nervous breakdown”
“they’re better than those lesbians who tried to kick you down in”
“Mick Jagger might be hard to shoot, I mean shot with a camera, he got lots of body guars, try to get a snapshot of Jackie Onassis picking her nose. I’d bet Enquirer will pay big bucks for it”
“why should I sign these index cards”
“mentions Rock Star Robert Plant”
“The fans being all spaced out on crack, Plant is heavy into Zen”
“Seagull is nice and pretty until it shits on your head”

“have to sit and watch hours of Ed Sullivan as punishment”
“not going to the USSR as a prisoner exchange”
“So I ain’t Cuomo-sexual”
“Rubin and Hoffman are two fuckin class “A” creeps”
“The world is full of scum”
“hope Miss Sardine got over that bad case of vaginal flu”
“don’t kiss her down there when she’s sick”
“man, you’re fuckin nuts”
“I’m not mad at you, only a little pissed”
“Miss Sardine had a bout of PMS, lucky she didn’t take a hammer & beat your head in”
“wants autobiography of G. Gordon Liddy”
“why this mother fuckers sending all this mail”
“no need to worry about someone going knock knock on your door unless it’s a bill collector, cop or Ed Sullivan’s ghost”
“Eddie Ghost” is here-numerous guards and prisoners have seen him. He roams through the hall singing very early Beatle songs”
“most celebrities are weak, insecure people and drug addicts or alcoholics”
“sex not always cut out what it’s thought to be”
“frustrated people have their own demons to wrestle”
“corrupt publicity seeking cops via satellite to do an Ed Sullivan show”

“some of these broads look like they got cow tits sewn on their chest”
“I like moderate small tits, hate big tits”
“I hate Nixon and Kissinger”
“”98% of U.S. males have pervert traits- the other 1.7% are uncertain”
“what kind of games do you play besides Kill the Cat, Find the Clit and Strip Poker”
“there’s a lot of things I could do if I were free”
“man. I wish I were free”
“plenty of my mail gets ripped off”
“letters with cash in it gets ripped off”
“I’m a head shrinker”
“even the dogs know your scent now”
“glad to know an early demise is not part of my individual  Karmic destiny”
“New books too expensive-no fuckin good”
“do not send books on Martial Arts”
“if we happen to score on the sale of those cars, we’ll just split it 50/50”
“have a nice time with Eric Clapton”
“cops stole his diploma”
“father’s sick”
”feels like a scumbag”
“dad got a useless jail bird”
“Great poem: When he’s dead, to reserve a bed, find a chick, get some head”
“thanks for the 5 bucks. It’ll come in handy for some soap for a dope”

“the Middle East, this may be our last Xmas, WWIII”
“my world is getting smaller, NY is broke and Cuomo is going on welfare”
“guard your house and life, stay away from Lithium, it’s a commie drug”
“I’ve seen you on last Sunday’s 60 Minutes with Saddam Hussein & George Bush. Queens man sells his peace plan to U.S. & Iraq for $10.00”
All letters are in fine condition, all signed as “Dave” except two. One is  signed “D” the other as “Your Bro Wheat IV aka Sidney Bloomburger“.  A remarkable insight into the mind of the “Son of Sam”........
