STEINBECK JOHN: (1902-1968) American Writer, Nobel Prize winner for Literature, 1962. A.L.S., with his initials J.S., one page, 4to, n.p., 14th November 1964, to M.P. Steinbeck informs his correspondent, in full, 'Here we go again. For a few blessed days I was free of them but they have tracked me down. On Nov. 23rd we go to California and I will probably be back Dec 3-4. I can't imagine anything terribly important will happen in the mail during that time, but if you happen to be in town, you might take a look. I like the alcoholic lady - Maybe I should have a rubber stamp made for the kids “Not known at this address”, lets think of it.' With minor tears and creasing to the upper edge and a clear tape repair to the verso for a small tear on the left edge, not affecting text or signature. G The current letter most likely refers to correspondence Steinbeck was receiving from school pupils at this time requesting information about the author. In the Saturday Review Steinbeck wrote a short piece entitled A Plea to Teachers stating, in part, 'I was pleased that someone was interested in how old I was and where I was born… This went on for some time and then an ominous change crept in… As the peremptory tone entered the number of letters increased… Now apparently, the competition is getting rough, because a new tone has entered. The letters begin with outrageous flattery which even I can't believe and they end - “My teacher says if you don't answer I won't pass”.
CARTER HOWARD: (1874-1939) English Archaeologist and Egyptologist, discovered the Tomb of Tutankhamun in 1923. D.S., with his initials H C, one page, 4to, n.p. (London), 26th May 1933.

Phipps of Earls Court Road to Carter for the restoration of a stool etc., totaling £6-4-6.

With a neatly affixed revenue stamp and official rubber stamp acknowledging receipt of Carter's payment and the credit in hand. Rare. VG
'Long live the forward march of the common people….' CHURCHILL WINSTON S.: (1874-1965) British Prime Minister 1940-45, 1951-55. Nobel Prize winner for Literature, 1953. A truly exceptional vintage wartime signed 11 x 16 photograph, incorporating an autograph quotation, the classic formal image depicting Churchill seated in a half length pose at his desk within the Cabinet Room of 10 Downing Street. Photograph by Walter Stoneman (although his credit stamp masked to the verso by traces of former mounting). Signed ('Winston S. Churchill') in bold, dark fountain pen ink to the lower photographer's mount, with an additional four line quotation in his hand, in full, 'Long live the forward march of the common people in all the lands towards their true & just inheritance & towards the broader & fuller age'. Also dated 30th November 1941 in his hand. War date signed photographs of Churchill of this size and quality are rare, and the present example is greatly enhanced by the addition of his holograph quotation. Some light age wear to the edges of the photographer's mount, evidently caused by previous framing, and with a couple minor creases to the upper left border and corners. About VGChurchill's choice of quotation is an interesting one, and derives (with a couple of very minor alterations) from the conclusion of his Dieu Protégé La France speech which was first broadcast on 21st October 1940, and in which he also declared 'Frenchmen! For more than 30 years in peace and war I have marched with you… Here in London, which Her Hitler says he will reduce to ashes, and which his aeroplanes are now bombarding, our people are bearing up unflinchingly. Our Air Force has more than held its own. We are waiting for the long promised invasion. So are the fishes . . .Remember that we shall never stop, never weary, and never give in . . . We seek to beat the life and soul out of Hitler and Hitlerism….'
