ALS signed “O. W. Holmes,” one page both sides, 4.5 x 7.25, dated March 25, 1872. In a letter to George W. W. Haughton, Holmes writes, in part: “You have been kind enough to lend me ‘The Hale’ for a long time, as I suppose because I may have suggested the name you adopted. I have looked with great pleasure, might say admiration upon the finished engravings and elegant printing of a journal devoted to one of the mechanic arts.” In fine condition. RRAuction COA.
