There’s a special piece of Martin Luther King Jr. memorabilia up for sale … a handwritten note where he shares his personal definition of love.
It’s pretty cool … one of MLK’s admirers asked him the meaning of love, and the civil rights icon scribbled a super-deep quote … the note is hitting the market through the memorabilia company Moments in Time — and they’re hawking this slice of history for a cool $42,000!!!

Martin’s message is from sometime in the mid-1960s… and he says, “Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. He who loves is a participant in the being of God.”
Powerful stuff, for sure.
Anything written in MLK’s handwriting is super rare and valuable … there’s not much out there other than inscribed books … and he even slapped his John Hancock on the bottom of the parchment.
It’s kinda funny … the note was acquired from a memorabilia dealer in England who apparently didn’t have a clue as to what he had in his possession.
See, it pays to know your world history.
