ALS signed “Albert,” one page both sides, 5 x 8, embossed letterhead featuring the royal crest, April 19, 1922. In a letter to a dear friend, Albert writes from Windsor Castle, in full: “Very many thanks for your letter which I received yesterday. It was very kind of you to have written in the way you did. I am afraid I shall not be able to come to Pitsford this weekend unfortunately. There are people coming here for the weekend I understand. I am so glad you liked the chestnut horse of Bishops on Saturday. It gives one a good feel & seems to know all about it. That is a good course he has got now with some nasty places to negotiate. I am sending you the 3 photos which I hope you will show to Mrs. George & ask her to choose one & I will send it on to you signed etc.” In fine condition, with a central horizontal fold and light creasing. A clean, clear letter from a young Prince Albert, 14 years before he would ascend to the throne following his brother Edward’s shocking abdication. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
