ANS signed “Mark Twain,” one page, 6.25 x 1, March 10, 1902. Clemens pens a note in the upper margin of a clipping from the New York American and Journal, responding to a piece describing a quarrel between himself and Mrs. Astor. In full: "This 'interview' is merely a lie. No interviewer saw me or spoke with me. It would not occur to me to discuss a subject with Mrs. Astor, or with the cat." Matted and framed with the newspaper column and a matte-finish portrait of the author in his trademark white suit to an overall size of 14 x 10.5. In fine condition, with a tiny tape stain to the top edge.
