ANS signed “G. Bernard Shaw,” one page, 8.5 x 11, Emerson Quarterly letterhead, March 1, 1929. Note written at the bottom of an earlier TLS to Shaw from Sands Chipman of the Emerson Quarterly. Chipman had written Shaw concerning an excerpt he had seen from "a letter by you to Mr. Percival Wilde on the subject of Amateurs and Royalties. The royalties question is still a live issue in this country" and Chipman wished to add Shaw's thoughts to the Quarterly's article on the subject. At the bottom of the letter Shaw writes, “I have no objection to you reprinting the letter. But it would be uncivil to do so without Mr. Wilde's permission. If you can get it you may go ahead without consulting me further." In very good condition, with a few small separations along intersecting folds, a vertical fold through a single letter of signature, several pencil notations, and uniform toning from previous display.
