Beschreibung

Autograph Letter: 1p., 12mo. Good, on lightly-aged paper. In envelope addressed by Tinker to McCamic at Wheeling, West Virginia. He thanks him for sending 'the book on Barber'. 'It enriches my working library, and I shall be frequently reminded of what I owe to your kindness and interest.' Typed Letter: 1p., 12mo. Fair, on lightly-aged paper with light rust stain from staple at head. McCamic's 'file of the British Magazine' is 'rare, if not unknown'. 'The libary force was quite excited over the little book - you know we have the finest collection of magazines in this country - and thought I was going to make them a present of the book. I consented at least to ask you to leave it to Yale in your will! You see how dangerous it is to let such things out of your grasp.' Autograph Note: 1p., 12mo. Fair, on aged paper with rust stain from paperclip at head. 'I am returning the file of the British Magazine. Tis is the only copy I can discover for that year.'.
