TLS, one page, 7 x 10, personal letterhead, June 3, 1974. Letter to Wesley Hartley. In part: “I do not believe a college education is necessary for a career in creative writing. But if a would-be writer does not go to college, he darned well better discipline himself to do an awful lot of reading…I actually learned more about writing after I’d left college…by wandering around Europe for a year, lugging a battered suitcase full of history books.” In fine condition. Seuss himself was a graduate of Dartmouth, and it was while in college he began using his pen name, after being caught with alcohol in his room, and being forced to resign from the school’s literary magazine.
