ALS in German, signed “A. Schweitzer,” one onionskin page, 8.5 x 11, October 20, 1954. Letter to Dr. Austin Smith at the Journal of the American Medical Association, in part (translated): "You have the great kindness to take and publish my article entitled ‘Medicine in the Jungle’ in one of your magazine’s editions and I would like to thank you warmly for it. I am therefore ashamed to send it so late. But I couldn’t…do it earlier because as I returned this summer, exhausted from Africa to Europe and got submerged with extremely urgent and important work, I didn’t find one single day of rest.” In very good to fine condition, with chipping along the edges of the fragile onionskin. Accompanied by an unsigned portrait of Schweitzer. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
