Description

ALS signed “O. W. Holmes,” one page, 5 x 7.75, Supreme Court of the United States letterhead, November 18, 1917. Letter to Harvey D. Jacobs, in full: "A visit to Harris & Ewing and inspection of their proofs left me unable to believe that any of those shown me correspond to the one I sighted this morning. Therefore if you are willing to adhere to your kind offer, I should be greatly obliged if you would get them to send me a proof of the one you identify. I want half a dozen, but I want to be sure I get the same." In very good to fine condition, with irregular overall toning.
