ADAMS, Richard. AUTOGRAPHED LETTER SIGNED (ALS). London, 19 June 1973. 
Wonderful AUTOGRAPHED LETTER SIGNED, 3-1/2 pages, to the creator of the 
cover art for the Puffin edition of WATERSHIP DOWN which was published 
in June 1973 becoming a bestseller and responsible for establishing the 
book in the public's eye. Adams praises the artist's work: "Fiver's 
stare of rapt contemplation really makes one want to investigate 
further." He also asks for the original artwork which eventually did 
wind up in his hands. Fine. (#000187)        $1,000.00
