BLACKMORE (Richard Doddridge, 1825-1900, Novelist, author of 'Lorna Doone')

Autograph Letter Signed to Dr Masters (M. J. Masters, Editor of the Gardener's Chronicle) agreeing to "send my fructicultural phiz as a tribute to the great pomologist if only I can lay hold of a sample - wh. is very doubtful. There were never many ... only one wh. I sent to an Artist (who had some idea of 'doing' me) may be recoverable. If so I will send it to you, as soon as I get it ..." with a postscript that if it doesn't come it will be because he couldn't get it and good wishes for the coming year, 1 side on a correspondence card, Teddington, 24th December
