This is one of 2 letters written to a Mr. G.N. Wright from Dr. Bye regarding the use of his combination oil cure for cancer.

Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png)

This letter is one of two letters in my possession written to a Mr. G.N. Wright from the infamous fraud Dr. Bye of Dr. Bye's Combination Oil Cures for Malignant Diseases.  Dr. Bye, from my understanding, was eventually banned from using the United States Postal Service for the purpose of promoting his miracle cures.   I have the two letters and the two original  stamped envelopes used for mailing.   Are these of any value?
