A letter written by one Civil Rights icon in remembrance of another is now for sale.

Rosa Parks wrote a letter, detailing her thoughts about Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., to a Mr. Kessler. The letter, dated Oct. 6, 1981, is available on the website Moments in Time, at a price of $54,000.

“It’s the only letter I’ve ever seen where (Parks) talks about King, and it’s totally handwritten, which is quite rare,” Moments in Time CEO Gary Zimet told AL.com.
