ALS signed “Elizabeth,” one page both sides, 4.5 x 7.5, Buckingham Palace letterhead, April 22, 1949. Handwritten letter to Richard, in full: “I was so pleased to receive your letter of good wishes for my birthday—it was most kind of you to remember me. Our son is growing very fast and is already trying to sit up. He is most affable and laughs a great deal. I hope your nephew is well—I was very envious of his luxurious hair in the photograph of his christening. I hope Ela’s baby is going on well, too—I expect you are a busy uncle, now! It must have been a wonderful family gathering for Easter—and great fun, too! I hope we shall meet again before too long.” In very fine condition. An appealing letter from Princess Elizabeth as a new mother. Her first child, Charles, was only five months old when this letter was written.
