FROST,  Robert.  SIGNED  PHOTOGRAPH.  Israel:  1961.  An
         informal  glossy  8"  x 10" close-up photograph of  Frost  in
         front of  a  log house, SIGNED and INSCRIBED by the  poet  on
         his white  shirt offering fine contrast: "Robert Frost/to his
         benefactor/Harold    Howland/Israel  1961."   Howland   was a
         diplomat  who  often was visited by Frost. A pencil  note  on
         the verso  of  the  photograph refers to him as  a  New  York
         publisher  though  we have not been able to confirm this.  In
         any event  it  is  a most interesting inscription  by  Frost.
         Hand a  little  shaky  and  ink  a  bit  uneven.  Still  Fine 
 $2500
