JOHN
(Augustus, 1878-1961, Painter)
Fine Autograph Letter signed to "Dear Jim"
saying that "it's a long time since you wrote and sent me that fine drawing. What must you think of me? I have it is true been laid up in hospital ... for a long spell after an operation. They removed a Stone from my inside which, after years was becoming a great nuisance and upsetting me a lot. The Op. was a great success, and I am now convalescing and Dode & I are just about to move to the South of Spain to Malaga where I am told sun is guaranteed. It has been a frightful year here. Please don't think I didn't appreciate your kindness in sending me the splendid cat. It is drawn with the spirit of a calligraphic Chinese Masterpiece! I hear often from Poppet, and Pol also has written. His work from what I have seen, shows real sensibility and appears to improve all the time. He is to have a show in London in the Spring. I too, hope to get busy in the south after so long a break. It may take some time to find a suitable place but we are first at a village on the sea ... Well, my dear Jim, we leave tomorrow for London ... Thank you again for your letter and the Cat! ...", 2 sides 8vo., Fryern Court, Hants headed paper, 12th December

Fine Autograph Letter signed to Lady Anderson
saying that he "was held down here by the effects of flu but will be back in Tite St this week ... I hope you are quite recovered and will be able to come round ... I shall get on with the Spanish muchachas I hope. I did one of the Alba girl but want to do another. I found her very sweet and sympatico. I do not know their styles & titles so don't know how to write to or ring them personally for sittings. I have the Horizons waiting for me in London. You must realise they will need drastic revision ...", 1 side 8vo., Fryern Court, Hants, 8th January
