American author and playwright (1874–1938). Gale became the first female to win the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1921. Two items: TLS, one page, March 25, 1927. In a letter to a fan, Gale writes, in full: “You are good to be interested in that little first story. It is here somewhere, done in printing and I distinctly remember sitting on the floor and asking my mother how to spell ‘N—yes.’ I am enclosing the copy which you asked for, and thanks for the little book of Mr. Woodbury’s poem”; handwritten manuscript of the beginning of her first story, one page, signed “Zona Gale (about 1883),” entitled ‘The Three Travelers.’ Toning to both pages, particularly along the edges, with a strip of light, vertical toning through the center of the TLS, a tear to the right edge, and a clipping affixed to the reverse of the TLS, and paperclip impressions and some small tears along the top edge of each page, otherwise fine condition.
