British shipping heiress, author, editor, and activist on behalf of African-American causes (1896–1965). Her published account of the infamous “Scottsboro Boys” case attracted international attention. TLS, one page, 7.5 x 7.5, July 23, no year [circa early 1930s]. Cunard writes to A. L. Davis. In part: “Tell me more about Toc H. Though I know it of course by name, I don’t know whether its line is imperialistic—to what point imperialistic I should say. ‘Abolition of class distinction’ is what I read in your letter. So that sounds good about Toc H. Do you think they can be interested in the Scottsboro case? If so I can supply material for speeches, discussions, etc.” Accompanied by the address panel from the mailing envelope. In very good condition, with trimmed edges, mild wrinkling, and faint show-through at corners from glue on reverse. R&R COA.
