Third-person ALS, one page, 6.75 x 4.25, October 19, 1892. In full: “Mr. C. L. Dodgson is happy to inform Mr. Doroning that he has found the ‘Dante.’ He overlooked it, in opening the parcel, and supposed that he either did not remember what his order had been, or concluded that the ‘Dante’ had been already sold. He had thrown aside the cover into a large box of waste paper, on searching which the book has just been found. He is very sorry to have given so much trouble by his careless. From Catalogue 271, he would like to have 106, Faiths—4/6—1892.” Gorgeously double-matted and framed with an image of Dodgson reading a book to an overall size of 17.5 x 11.5. Two vertical folds and a small tear to the upper left, otherwise fine condition. Exceptional literary content. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
