TLS - Typed Letter Signed
British novelist (1899–1966) best known for the Horatio Hornblower series and The African Queen, the most famous of his books adapted for the screen. TLS signed “CSF,” one page, 7.25 x 6, December 18, 1951, personal letterhead. In a brief letter to his friend Montgomery, Forester writes, in full: “I don’t mind at all if LILLIPUT takes out the last three words of ‘The Mastro at Sixty’—but I have the gravest doubts as to whether it will ever be published in America.” Intersecting folds, light surface creasing, a few trivial spots of foxing, and a pencil mark in another hand, otherwise fine condition.
