Description

“It has been an enormous labour producing a thing of this size by the methods of co-operative authorship”

Highly influential British economist (1883–1946) who was the chief British representative at the 1944 Bretton Woods conference that established the International Monetary Fund. TLS signed “J. M. Keynes,” one page, 7 x 9, personal letterhead, January 18, 1928. Letter to James Louis Garvin, journalist and editor of The Observer. In part: “I enclose with this an advance uncorrected page proof of the Report of the Liberal Industrial Enquiry [not included] which will be published on February 3rd. We very much hope that you will think it interesting enough to give up one of your ‘Observer’ articles to it. And in this hope I am sending you a copy in good time…before the date of publication, what is a pretty heavy bit of work. It has been an enormous labour producing a thing of this size by the methods of co-operative authorship.” In fine condition, with central horizontal and vertical folds.
