[Rarebooks] FS: Felix Frankfurter Letter to Samuel Eliot Morison

[Charles Agvent]

FRANKFURTER, Felix. TYPED LETTER SIGNED (TLS). Washington, D.C., 9 April 
1953. A gracious two-page Typed Letter SIGNED "Felix" on Supreme Court 
of the United States stationery (4-1/2" x 6-7/8") to historian Samuel 
Eliot Morison and his wife, Priscilla. In full: "The company was worthy 
of the Mouton Rothschild, and the magnum was worthy of the company. What 
a good time was had -- and, I could not escape the conviction, not 
merely by me. As for me, I stored up such delightful and permanent 
memories that I can draw upon them for those dispiriting moments to 
which all flesh is heir, and of which Washington provides its own 
special brands. I shall continue to savor the introductory period when 
we were only three, indeed the few seconds when Priscilla all by herself 
dominated the charming living-room -- and the party was also closed for 
me by her. My warmest appreciation." Normal creases from mailing. Fine.
