ALS signed "John," one page on a color 5.75 x 4 postcard depicting a ship, September 30, 1957. Letter to Chase Horton, in full: "A ship is the grave yard of ambition. I not only feel worthless, I am worthless. Ninety percent of my energy is taken up with getting from the bed to the table and back to the bed. I did read The Paston Papers, a good book. It surely indicates that raids on property were more usual than not. It was not a gentle time in any sense. The mystery was very good also. Have written Elizabeth about the 3 faces of Eve. I can't get over a restlessness about that book. Something smelly some where." In fine condition. A fabulous, quotable letter from the great American scribe.
