^Lot 485 John O’Hara

Two items: ALS, signed “John,” one page, 7 x 10, personal letterhead, no date. A letter to his friend Gordon S. Haight, professor of English at Yale. In part: “I have a title for my paper. I call it ‘Yale Blue Shoe.’ It isn’t much, but it covers the subject.”; and a 7 x 5.5 Christmas card, signed inside beneath a pre-printed sentiment, “Mary & Gordon—Sending this to my favorite college. I know you’re away, but where? John O’Hara.” In fine condition.
