ALS signed “G. Bernard Shaw,” one page, 7 x 4.5, personal letterhead, January 9, 1917. Letter to Curtis Freshel. In part: “As a boy I used to say that Te ipsum nosce—Know thyself—was adopted by the Shaws because they were too snobbish to know anyone else; but now I cling to the hope that I am not the first philosopher of the family….It ought to be possible by this time to make a booklet out of my scattered utterances on vegetarianism; but where am I to find them, or find the time to write anything fresh?” In very good condition, with overall toning, dampstaining to the right side (slightly affecting the signature), and a lightly trimmed bottom edge.
