Description

ALS signed “J. Conrad,” one page both sides, 5 x 8, South Eastern Hotel letterhead, September 9, 1920. Letter to "My very dear Edward," in part: "We rejoice at your promise to come to us on the 4 Oct. You must let us know the train which we will meet in Canterbury (not Bishopsbourne). I can't tell you how glad I am to hear that you are going to bring out some critical essays. Their value will endure long, long after the 'old timepiece' has really stopped. For, as to the present, those who say it does no longer go are simply unable to hear the golden tick." In very good to fine condition, with light creasing and soiling.
