Description

ALS signed “Bram Stoker,” one page, 8 x 10, Lyceum Theatre letterhead, June 8, 1900. Handwritten letter to American dramatic critic and author William Winter, in full: "Hearty thanks for your letters & the poem which I shall always value. We had a lovely voyage & are all bit & up to our eyes in work." In fine condition, with a short tear to the right edge. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope neatly addressed in Stoker's hand; the docket "Bram Stoker" on the front of the envelope is in William Winter's hand.

Stoker worked as business manager for Henry Irving's world-famous Lyceum Theatre in London between 1879 and 1898, where he supplemented his income by writing a large number of sensational novels—his most famous being the vampire tale Dracula, published in 1897.
