Description

Sought-after ink signature, “Dear Sir, yours faithfully, Ch. Darwin,” penned at the bottom of a 4.25 x 2 sheet torn from a black-bordered handwritten letter from the esteemed naturalist; although undated, the mourning stationery suggests that Darwin may have been grieving the loss of his father, Robert Darwin, who passed in November 1848. In fine condition.
