Description

ALS signed “Philip,” one page both sides, 5.75 x 8.25, H.M. Yacht Britannia letterhead, August 7, [1983]. Handwritten letter to "Caroline," in part: "Thank you, once again for coping with us all and making everything so easy and comfortable…The new decoration of the room is a great success. I can see that you are itching to get your hands on more of the house…It is really quite frightening to see how quickly the children grow. I must say they are a splendid pain! It was a marvellous moment when Charles suddenly realized that I was the person he had been watching driving the carriage!" In very fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, with the address covered in white-out.
