Description

George Cruikshank

British caricaturist and illustrator (1792–1878) best known for his works satirizing contemporary politics and his illustrations for the works of Charles Dickens. ALS signed “Geo. Cruikshank,” one page, 4.5 x 7.25, December 9, 1860. Letter to Mr. Shatford, in full: “I saw my friend Dr. Wood yesterday, who advised me to see Sir Peter Laurie or his nephew—as I had the pleasure of knowing both these gentlemen. I went to the nephew. He will not be able to attend the Board tomorrow—but he knows about it and he says justice will be done—and that further interference is quite unnecessary—either by yours truly—or indeed any one else.” In very good condition, with old tape repair on reverse to a separated fold, and missing upper right corner tip. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
