Illustrator (1874–1944) known for creating the cartoon cupids, The Kewpies, which were featured in women's magazines and comic strips until her retirement in 1937. Unsigned typed letter, one page, 8.5 x 11, Villas Narcissus Capri, Italy, December 27, 1932. Cryptic letter to a friend. In part: “I am your loving ghost and you must talk to me, but you will know I have heard, and thought and squeaked and gibbered in the streets of Rome and cared about everything, but that I can’t answer (like Hamlet’s father, that conversable phantom). And you wept at my chirp and gave it a ‘larklike’ violin of Mozart to comfort it.” O’Neill has added numerous winged illustrations and notations throughout the text. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, scattered creases, light toning, and a few small edge chips and tears.
