Description

Prime Minister Churchill thanks his Swedish publisher for “the most interesting and beautifully bound books which I look forward to studying”

TLS signed “Yours sincerely, Winston S. Churchill,” one page, 7.5 x 9.5, 10 Downing Street (Prime Minister) letterhead, October 31, 1953. Letter to Swedish publisher Bertil Sterner, in full: “I am so much obliged to you for your letter of October 20 and for your kindness in sending me the most interesting and beautifully bound books which I look forward to studying. I fear that if I am, as I hope, able to come to Stockholm for a day, I shall not have the time or strength to do all the agreeable things that may be proposed for me.” Churchill emends the date in his own hand. In fine condition, with file holes to the left edge, and trivial brushing to the sentiment. Sterner was the head of Messrs Skoglund Bokforlag, Churchill's Swedish publishers.
