ALS signed at the conclusion, “Bob, Robert Stroud, #594,” and once at the top, “Robert Stroud,” one page both sides, 8 x 10.25, lined paper, March 2, 1957. Stroud writes a lengthy letter to Mamie E. Stroud, who is having trouble with “soot” in her fireplace, explaining some of the essential mechanics involved in successfully maintaining a fire, “there needs to be enough air above the fire to burn up the tar that is given off,” then mentioning a movie script, “I’ve finally gotten and signed the new contracts and sent them to Stan. He told me in the letter that the movie script was half done and progressing nicely,” and finally ending with the curious and insightful line, “When you deal with living things, either animals, birds, or people, each one is a new interest.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and uniform toning.
