Two items: souvenir typescript, 8.5 x 11, of the first page of chapter one of All The King’s Men (his Pulitzer Prize-winning work), signed and inscribed in red ink at the conclusion, “To Maud Battaglia, sincere regards, Robert Penn Warren”; and a TLS signed “Robert Penn Warren” on the reverse of a 5.5 x 3.5 postcard, June 4, 1981. In full: “Many thanks for kind words, and I’m glad that your poems have found reception. But there must be some confusion about Being Here. I don’t remember having received a copy. I’ll take another and more careful look.” In fine condition, with minor creasing and wrinkling to bottom edge of the typescript and show-through from type on opposing sides of the postcard.
