American pin-up photographer and glamor artist (1893-1984) best remembered for helping launch the modeling career of Marilyn Monroe. TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, April 17, 1939. Letter to Harry Buskisk, in full: “I am glad you like the type of girls I paint. I have one reproduction left, of a calendar that will be out next year, which I am sending you under separate cover. Most any of the advertisers who use my work will be glad to send you a print provided they still have any left. Brown & Bigelow of St. Paul, Minn. own all of my original paintings and do sell them when they are through making the reproductions.” In fine condition, with a light paperclip impression to the top edge.
