Description

“Thanks so much for the loon, It bespeaks my state of mind these days”

TLS, one page, 5.75 x 7.75, personal letterhead, August 9, 1999. To his friend, Mr. King. In full: “Thanks so much for the loon, It bespeaks my state of mind these days. I’m up to my neck in deadlines, trying to finish the score of a new show in time for rehearsals, which begin on September 15th. This means, I’m afraid, that I won’t be able to accept your kind invitation to meet. Over the next few weeks I’ll be at the very least distracted and probably something much closer to frantic. Please forgive me.” In fine condition, with trivial fading to one typed line along the central horizontal fold. RRAuction COA.
