Description

The price of fame: “There seems to be no rest for the weary”

ALS, one lightly lined page in pencil, 8 x 10, March 13, 1944. Moses writes to her friend, the collector Louis J. Caldor, who “discovered” her in 1938. In part [Moses’ spellings and punctuation retained]: “Would be very glad to see you, am situated the same as last year, but am very busy more and more ever day, there seems to be no rest for the weary, will talk, when I see you, as I have so many letters to get out on this mail.” In fine condition, with a few minor wrinkles (one lightly touching signature). R&R COA.
