Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Killer Angels (1928–1988). Scarce TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, January 15, 1985. Letter to an admirer. In part: “Hope you don’t mind this typed letter. I use this little electronic thing that weighs four pounds and is powered by batteries…but it doesn’t type well and I haven’t learned how to use it yet. But, must admit it’s fun working with the thing while sitting on a plane going across the Atlantic—always gets the stewardess interested. Sorry I have no pictures around, but really you aren’t missing much. Imagine a big bloke with a big busted nose and crooked teeth.” In fine condition, with a few creases and wrinkles and some slight mirroring of signature. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. RRAuction COA.
