^Lot 751 Alma Mahler-Werfel

Austrian composer, author and companion of famous men (1879–1964). ALS in her native language, boldly signed “Alma,” one page of onion skin paper, 8.5 x 11, August 22, 1950. The Viennese socialite writes in her customary purple ink, translated, in full: “Liebau, Please send my 2nd letter back to me, so that I can type and return it completed! I will presumably be in NY at the end of Sept, and will bring the scores with me. I embrace you.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds, one passing through a single letter of the signature, and scattered creasing.
