Artist known for his paintings and bronze sculptures dealing with the American West. ALS, two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 8, personal letterhead, February 18, 1902. Remington asks for permission to quote from the Burrow’s Brothers Jesuit Relations. In part, “I am an artist who occasionally writes for the magazines as you may know. I own a set of your Jesuit Relations and would like to make an article or two for a magazine on the wild animal life of the continent as they observed it. This to interest sportsmen. In doing so it would be necessary to quote liberally from the work…I myself in my profession am so beset by infringement that I am disposed to observe all copyrights and in no account do I like to take liberties with them. If I may do this or if I may not do this - will you say?” In fine condition, with bisecting horizontal mailing fold and a touch of light toning. COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
