English thief (1929-2013) best remembered for his role in the Great Train Robbery of 1963, his escape from prison two years later, and his subsequent life as a fugitive for 36 years. ALS, one page, 8.25 x 11.75, September 13, 1995. Addressed from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a handwritten letter to Mr. Brown, in full: “Thank you for your letter dated January 30th! I’m sorry it has taken so long to reply but your letter was one of hundreds! As fast as I get a dozen replies written another 50 or 60 letters arrive and there’s a mountain of unanswered letters to plough through. It’s nice to know that you and all the people who have written enjoyed ‘Odd Man Out’ but I’m not so sure I should have given the box number to write to!! However, I’m going to keep writing—all over the world! Good health and much happiness to you and your family.” In fine condition.
