Lot 521 Gertrude Stein
Expatriate American writer (1874–1946) best known for novels, poetry, and opera libretti marked by a distinctive, playfully experimental, sometimes nonsensical use of language. ALS, one page both sides, 8 x 10, personal letterhead, no date. Letter to Billie Young. In part: “Your letter interested me very much, it is just that, and when it does it does and it did. Send me more newspapers with your column in it. I would like to have them…We have been moving after over 30 years of one place here we are in another, and am pleased to be here.” In fine condition, with central horizontal and vertical fold and some light toning and creasing.
