ALS signed “Ch. Darwin,” one page, 4.75 x 3.5, January 12, 1880. Letter to physician Alfred Krakauer in Berlin, in full: "I am much obliged for your note. I have heard of other analogous cases, but there remains to doubt whether they may not be accidental or coincidences, for such cases certainly occur in non-Jewish families." In very good to fine condition, with repairs on the reverse of the central vertical fold. An interesting, if rather cryptic, letter from the influential naturalist.
