[AUTOGRAPH POSTCARD, SIGNED WITH INITIALS]

by Whitman, Walt

  • Used
Camden [NJ]. One page, on verso of penny postcard (7.5 x 13 cm), ca. 50 words, in ink, addressed by Whitman on the verso. Small spot on right edge, touching slightly a couple of letters, otherwise very good. Addressed to [William] Sloane Kennedy, early on a staff writer for the Philadelphia AMERICAN, a literary biographer for the DAB, and one of Whitman's closest friends and caregivers in his later years. Whitman writes Kennedy, then in Belmont Mass: "Nothing very new or different - keep up - go out in the wheel chair - a bad spell the last week & now - (gradually declining) - a letter from Mrs O'C[onnor] Wash'n. She is gloomily, poorly left without means. The little dinner book is being put in type WW." Ellen M. O'Connor and William D. O'Connor were close Washington friends of Whitman. William published a defense of Whitman (THE GOOD GRAY POET: A VINDICATION), and prior to her marriage, Ellen was active in the anti-slavery and women's rights movements, and contributed to LIBERATOR and UNA. William died shortly before Whitman wrote this letter, as implied by his report of her circumstances. The referenced "dinner book" was published as CAMDEN'S COMPLIMENT TO WALT WHITMAN.

Description:
1902. September 22 [1902]. Written to Mr. [William V.] Alexander, editor of Ladies Home Journal, who had requested a series of articles from Keller that were later published as The Story of My Life. Keller humbly thanks Alexander for payment for the last article; in part: "I only wish I could have made the story of my life more worthy of the generous praise it has received...It has meant a great deal in my life, and in Miss Sullivan's too -- the thought of the happiness that she says my compliance with your request has brought her is sweeter even than the thought of the kindness shown me in the letters that come constantly from old friends long silent and new friends whose words go to the heart..." Two 5" x 8" pages, typed with blue ribbon and signed "Helen Keller." A very early letter by Keller, preceding her first book, with exceptionally good content. Fine. No Binding. Fine.

Description:
2005. Dated "March 5, 2005" with Palahniuk's agent's NYC return address. Aprx 150 words. Palahniuk returns signed books and informs his correspondent that in the furure the "address in Vacouver, Washington will be unreliable. I'm seldom there." He recommends St Helen's Bookstore for future signed books. "It's a small one-room bookstore and I stop there once a month... It's good to support small, independent bookstores." Palahniuk adds that he is glad to return the books. "It would bum-me-out to think they'd sat in the 'dead-letter' office, or -- like a ton of my mail -- got left in the rain... You wouldn't guess the sad, wet mountain of mail that gets hauled away from my old house in Portland." He ends with "I'll shut up now." Signed in ink. Fine condition.. Signed by Author. Unbound. Fine. Typed Letter Signed.
