[Rarebooks] FS: Eugene O'Neill Handwritten SIGNED Letter to bookseller Terence Holliday

[Charles Agvent]

O'NEILL, Eugene. AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED (ALS). Indre-et-Loire [France], 
17 July 1930. A two-page letter on both sides of Le Plessis stationery 
(5-7/8" x 4-3/4") SIGNED "Gene" to bookseller Terence Holliday. In full: 
"I've been meaning for a week or more to thank you for the razor. It is 
a peach and I am most grateful. I will think of you whenever I shave -- 
and, as long as I don't cut myself, what could be fairer? And the 
billiard book! It seems to be just the thing. I am going to give some 
intensive study to it next fall and winter and when you come next summer 
maybe I'll know why I make some of the shots -- when I make them! We 
have been having a [?] run on visitors since July dawned -- including a 
loathsome lady lecturer from Hartford, Conn. who arrived one day without 
invitation, found her way in, and gave it out cold and clammy she had 
come to visit because she 'did me such a lot of good' by her talks! 
Carlotta had almost to call the gendarmes to persuade this dame she 
wasn't welcome. A rare bird! (I was upstairs working)." Accompanied by 
an envelope addressed and SIGNED in full by O'Neill. Envelope with 
closed tear that extends through O'Neill's signature and return address, 
otherwise Fine. (#021011)        $1,200
