* Eliot (Thomas Stearns, 1888-1965). Three typed letters signed “T.S. Eliot”, Faber & Faber Ltd., 20th March 1946, 7th December 1948 and 26th June 1959, all to Miss (Maud) Armstrong at Lee, Ilfracombe, Devon, each pasted or partly pasted to the front endpapers of three Eliot books, the first letter thanking Miss Armstrong for her kind comments about the broadcast, saying he has no news of either Margaret or the Mirrlees and hoping to return to Lee, “as most people seem to do”, the second letter writing that he has only just returned from the United States where he found her charming letter and the delightful birthday gift, “I fear it is more likely to be used as an ash-tray than for the purpose for which it was designed - yet it may be that we shall continue to have a little wine after we have ceased to have tobacco. The former is certainly more important for civilisation: and if I ever have the wine to be tasted, and the guests for whom to taste it, you may be sure that your taster will figure in the ceremony. I am most interested to know that some of your recipes have a place in ‘Wishful Cookery’ which we intend to publish”, and the third letter apologising for the delay in replying to her letter, “If it is not too late and if you”ll forgive me we should be very glad to inspect your friends “Bed Time” book of verses. I must say that juvenile literature is not my department and I have to accept the opinion of the experts, but I would certainly pass it on with my recommendations. In any case it was a great pleasure to hear from you, and I should like you to know that I remember you as clearly as you can possibly remember me. I wish that I might at some time revisit Lee and introduce my wife to you”, each a little creased, one page, 4to. The letters are pasted in to the following books, in order: Four Quartets, 3rd imp., 1945; T.S. Eliot, A Symposium, pub. Editions Poetry, 1948; T.S. Eliot, A Symposium, 1958, all orig. cloth, rubbed and soiled, 8vo.
