Fine Books & Autographs
Our March 2 Fine Books & Autographs sale will feature an outstanding selection of presidential autographs, including clipped signatures and signed letters by George Washington. More than three items are signed by George Washington including an autograph letter from 1790 in which he discusses the character of prospective buyers of the land he intends to sell, a payroll for the Potomac Company, signed in 1785 when he was the company?s president, and two letters from the Revolutionary War. Desirable nineteenth and twentieth century high-spots abound: canonical firsts from Charles Dickens, Herman Melville, Mark Twain and Virginia Woolf all feature. A notable worthy of mention is Henry Roth?s Call It Sleep, bearing a presentation inscription to his sister Rose.
