ALS signed “Col.,” one page, 8.5 x 11, illustrated Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show letterhead, Portsmouth, May 29, [1911]. Letter to G. W. Lillie, otherwise known as ‘Pawnee Bill.’ In part: “We had two bad towns last week. Fitchburg & Newburyport. No one ever done business in either. The week hurt us at least $2000 in Lowell—sent your bank 5100 today to take up one of my notes…We are all OK here—now. And barring accident we will be OK. New England was never big for me. But wait till we start west. I predict a big season.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and a subtle spot of toning to the left border. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
