[Vaccine] Sabin, Albert. (1906–1993). Three Signed Letters Arranging Lectures in Italy. Three typed letters signed from the medical researcher to Professor Irma Antonetto of the Associazione Culturale Italiana, finalizing arrangements for a series of lectures he was to give in April and May of 1965.  In the first letter (February 26, 1965;  1 pp. on A4 The Children's Hospital Research Foundation stationary), Sabin writes in part "It will, unfortunately, not be possible for me to go to Turin immediately after my arrival in Milan...Radiotelevisione Italiana is planning to spend several hours with me to tape an interview, and also I have made arrangements for a conference during the evening."  By the time of the next letter a month later (March 20, 1965;  1 pp. on CHRF stationary), his schedule appears to have cleared, as he writes "I shall regard the arrangements that you have made as final and will go to Turin directly from the airport on my arrival in Milan."  The remainder of the letter addresses the question of whether his talk should be in English with simultaneous Italian translation or in French without any translation at all.  The final letter (April 5, 1965;  1 pp. on CHRF stationary) discusses further travel and hotel arrangements for the trip.  Expected mailing folds, two holes to left margin, else fine.

Albert Sabin received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1986 for his work developing the oral polio vaccine.

Irma Antonetto (1920-1993), was founder and director of the Associazione Culturale Italiana [Association of Italian Culture] for 46 years, during which time she brought some 400 philosophers, writers, scientists, artists, and Nobel winners to lecture in Italy. She was recipient of the 1964 Cavaliere al merito della Repubblica italiana.
