Illustrator (1874–1944) known for creating the cartoon cupids, The Kewpies, which were featured in women's magazines and comic strips until her retirement in 1937. ALS, two pages, 5.25 x 8.25, Hotel Lutetia letterhead, December 16, 1920. Letter. In full: “I was enjoying a beautiful bronchitis when your note arrived, and all my powers were concentrated upon wheezing—so I laid it by. So sorry. I do want to see you and talk on, as we commenced at the charming Hoffman’s. Just now, I am running off to Italy until after Christmas, but I keep my place here, and when I return, I shall send you a word, hoping you will not have fled the mists of gray Paris. As for writing about my things—let us wait for the exposition of them, which, if I am not too paresseuse, will take place in the spring. I hope to have that delightful visit to your house—and meet your most inviting looking friends again.” In fine condition, with a uniform shade of toning and a few light creases. A beautiful letter to behold, clearly written by a skillful hand. RRAuction COA.
