ALS, two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.25 x 8.5, Brevoort House letterhead, October 27, 1883. Letter to William Winter, in full: "I am sorry to say that there is not a copy of Charles I so I could not send it to you. I understand from Loveday that he sent you the casts of Charles & Bells—so did not write—I write now lest you should think me rude not to have written. I hope to see you on Monday night—All promises well." Stoker adds a brief postscript: "I have just got your kind letter sent to me to Queenstown." In fine condition. William Winter was an American dramatic critic and author (1836-1917) who was known for his Romantic style poetry, and for his long career as an editor and writer for some of New York City's great papers. Winter was at the heart of an influential circle known as The Pfaffians who gathered weekly at the Vault at Pfaff's Beer Hall in Manhattan.
