CARLYLE, Thomas. AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT likely from FREDERICK THE GREAT. 
HOLOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT completely in Carlyle's hand but not signed of @250 
words on the verso of a letter (8" x 9-7/8") addressed to the writer 
notifying him of his election to the Atheneum. Mostly in ink with 
additions in pencil, the notes appear to be historical and biographical 
research in preparation for the writing of his biography of Frederick 
the Great. The notes spill over to the bottom of the letter. Light 
creases from folding; writing dark and clear. About Fine and uncommon.
