TLS signed “M. K. Gandhi,” one page, 7.5 x 8.75, December 29, 1927. Addressed from “The Ashram” in Sabarmati, a letter to Miss Francis Fuke at London’s St. Thomas’s Hospital, in full: “I have your letter. I cannot think of anything better than that you should attach yourself to some hospital where you could easily come in contact with those whom you have in view. I remember your visit to the Ashram. I am travelling just now and I have no photograph such as you want. You may not know that during recent years I have never sat for a photograph, but of course there are many snapshots available in the bazaar.” Gandhi has made a few handwritten corrections to the text of the letter, in addition to adding a total of 10 words. In very good to fine condition, with light creasing and multiple intersecting folds. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
