Russian writer (1866–1933) and son of Leo Tolstoy. ALS signed “Count Ilya Tolstoy,” three pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.5 x 8.5, embossed crest letterhead, September 21, 1925. Letter to Mrs. Curtis Freshel. In part: “This season I am tyed [sic] up with a new manager…and I am sorry that I can not talk without his permission. I wrote him a letter today and I hope you will be able to persuade him to allow me this little talk. We laughed at your description of the old four poster bed. I like old furniture but I am afraid of beds on which many generations slept dreamed and may be died. A spook may visit me in the night and may be even a crowd of them. However, if you do not mind such apparitions, you are all right.” In fine condition, with a light erased pencil notation to the upper right corner. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, filled out by Tolstoy with his signature, “Count Tolstoy” in the return address area.
