ALS, three pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.75 x 7.75, December 18, 1924. Letter to a young admirer recovering from an illness. In part, “It is ever so good of you to want my autograph, but I shall feel decidedly out of place among all those kings and queens of yours, and all the other great people. I wish I could send you a sketch, but to tell you the truth I never make any; what corresponds to such things. I generally make in my head, or if by chance they set on paper, they invariably end up in the waste basket, and for very good reasons…How glad I am to get out of cities & come away off up here in the hills. The great silence is always new and friendly…It has always seemed that ‘life,’ so called, in the cities, was nothing more than vast quantities of people dressed in dark clothes, going from one place to another…I wonder where you will put me: I hope just as far as possible from a king. Could there be anything worse on earth than to be a king! And yet many want to.” In fine condition. A beautifully-penned example of Parrish’s humility.
