Description

Exchanging books with scandalous author Elinor Glyn

TLS, one page, 8.5 x 6.5, blind-stamped personal letterhead, March 1, 1911. Letter to Elinor Glyn. In part: “To save my life, remembering your disinclination for sociological studies and novels, I have been hard-put to find enough of my books on the ranch to send you. I have managed to dig up eleven. Please tell me how you like some of them. When I tell you that this is the first time I have ever exchanged books, or offered to exchange books with anybody, you will appreciate the almost maidenly embarrassment with which I waited an answer from you.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, and two small circular spots of toning. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
