Harper Lee ANsS and Earrings
“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
This Christmas gift from ''To Kill a Mockingbird'' author Harper Lee consists of a John Singer Sargent book, a pair of earnings and two autographed notes signed. The notes to ''Doris'' and ''Bill'' are both affixed to the book's interior of the book and signed ''Nelle'', Harper Lee's first name. The notes, written inside cards, contain Christmas greetings and affection: ''…If there were an aristocracy in this country, you'd head the list. Since there is none, you'll have to be content with what you are: aristocrats of the spirit…'' Lot also consists of a thoughtful gift by Lee to her friend Doris Leapard: a pair of beautiful jeweled leopard earrings from Brighton Collectibles. In the note Lee expresses that she had tried to find Leopard earrings elsewhere ''…Tiffany don't have none of these critters (only penguins and Owls)…'' The notes each measure 5'' x 7''. The 256pp. book measures 11'' x 13.25'' and is published by Abbeville Press, Inc.: New York: 1982. The crystal and black earrings each measure 0.5'' x 1'' and come in a pink leopard designed Brighton pouch. All items are in fine condition.
