Imperial octavo, in stapled wrapper (VG); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage costs.

Condizione: Very Good. Williamsport, MD: 1946. Eight page manuscript letter in pen with newspaper clippings pasted throughout as part of the text or commentary by the author. Mild ink stains, toning to edges, a few clippings lifting, and offsetting where newspaper sits against blank page versos, otherwise Very Good or better condition. The eighth page acts as an envelope for the rest, with the instruction "Don't read til you get to work!" in pen. Atkinson didn't sign her letter but jokingly refers to herself in the third person throughout, even as "the WITCH" who keeps her husband so busy he never has time to read the papers. Lucky for him, she has decided to add clippings so he can catch up on all the important news, like panty girdles for $1 and the crab supply forecast for Maryland. Location taken from one of the clippings for a movie at the Williamsport Cinema. Though the letter is unsigned, we find records of a Robert Harvey Eckert (1918-1993) of Baltimore married to a Katherine Atkinson. .
