British children’s author and illustrator (1846–1901) whose distinctively illustrated books were among the most popular “juvenile” works of the Victorian age. ALS signed “K. G.,” one page both sides, 4 x 6, personal letterhead, February 19, 1898. Letter to Lady Maria [Ponsonby]. In full: “May I come Tuesday, then at 4:30 or 5 if 4:30 is too early, I could not come today. For they make such a point of my being all the afternoon at the Fine Art and I don’t know where I could get away not until 6 o’clock I expect. I wish I could have been with you this morning but to stand about all day is beyond me. It is a light day that is something. I expect you will feel much better when you get to Ireland.” Mild light toning and soiling, a couple of pencil notations, and light show-through from writing on reverse, otherwise fine condition.
