Description

Edward Elgar

Two ALSs to Austrian Jewish composer Heinrich Schalit: one on a 5.5 x 3.5 postcard, May 30, 1905, in part: “I had the pleasure to ask my publishers to send the score of ‘In the South’ for the collection”; and one on an 8 x 10 sheet of personal memo letterhead, December 30, 1929, in part: “I am obliged to you for your letter & the composition you are kind enough to send. If an opportunity occurs I shall have pleasure calling the attention of choral conductors to it.” In overall very good condition, with toning and a missing corner to the postcard, and old tape stains and marginal paper loss to the letter. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
