ALS, one page both sides, 4.5 x 6.75, January 12, 1903. Letter to M. D. Phillips. In part: “No portrait of my father was ever painted. At the time of his death in 1853 the family had no likeness of him except as was afforded by a poor daguerreotype. Some copies of this enlarged are now in the possession of some of the children—but they very indifferently represent him.” Affixed along the left edge to a slightly larger sheet. In fine condition. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
