Description

Cecil Beaton

ALS signed “Cecil,” one page both sides, 5.5 x 7, personal letterhead, dated in another hand December 4, 1953. Letter to Simon, in part: “Growing old is so horrible in any case there should be more & more palliatives—& present giving should be more & more encouraged. Thank you for letting me have such a nice silver surprise.” Pencil notation in another hand at top of first page reads, “I’d shown him the bust & he’d thought it was a present to himself!” In fine condition, with a couple trivial spots of soiling. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
