ALS, one page, 5.5 x 6.5, The Institute for Advanced Study (Office of the Director) letterhead, December 26, 1963. Handwritten letter to Dr. Rudolph von Abele, Professor of English at American University, in full: “Thank you for writing as you did. We all have our vanities, & mine is indeed for the word.” In very fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope hand-addressed by Oppenheimer.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
