Description

O’Hara sends a brief letter to fellow writer, Eckert Goodman, in full: “About an interview on your circus page, I am not sure when I am coming to town again, although it looks like next Tuesday, the 23rd, when I’ll be in New York overnight. I’ll call you Tuesday or Wednesday, but if I haven’t called you Wednesday late, the chances are I won’t be coming to town at all during that week.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one of which passes through a single letter of the signature, uniform toning, a tear to the top edge and a few small tears to the right edge.
