The Illustrated Letter – Charles Hamilton, Universe Books, New York, 1987, 157 pp. with illustrations and facsimiles, hardcover in tan boards with dust jacket. Approximately 100 letters and notes by famous figures are reproduced, with brief comments about each writer and letter. Some examples might be considered signed art works; others suggest that no dormant talent was suppressed by the writer’s pursuit of other passions and careers.
Simply sharing his own collection, the famous dealer illustrates how imagination and dedication can create a distinctive free-form collection beyond standard fields of defined sets. I
Book is fine, jacket is near fine with small edge bumps. [#5994]
