MILLER, Henry. ARCHIVE OF 3 AUTOGRAPH LETTERS SIGNED (ALSs). Three 
AUTOGRAPH LETTERS SIGNED to Al Berlinski, proprietor of Sun Dog Press. 
Includes: One page, signed "H.M.," sending issues of STROKES, with his 
business card, also with a note by Miller and INITIALED. Another letter, 
two pages on both sides of his personal stationery, discusses his eye 
troubles and a catalog put out in conjunction with a show he had in 
Jerusalem: "A flop because Israeli were short of dough, spending 
everything on [?], planes and ammunition. Enuf! I saw Thurston and 
Houdini on stage. The man who invited me to Magician's Ball was a W.U. 
messenger, himself quite a magician, I thought." He discusses a few of 
his books,including SEXUS, and mentions some shops where one can get 
them. "Have you read about the Dalai Lama's visit to the U.S. Got a 
rundown on his speech in L.A. Fabulous! Speaks common sense, laughs 
heartily, recommends no religious practices. Hope papers write him up as 
they surely will the Pope." The third letter is one page, SIGNED "Henry 
Miller" and dated 3 December 1979, with his address stamped in the top 
left corner. In part: "No use sending me books to read -- have had to 
quit reading -- eye trouble." Talks about signing books, having books 
due to come out from Capra Press, inquires about lithographs, and says 
he has no carbons of manuscripts. Fine. (#020096)        $1,000
