Description

Vintage fountain pen signature, "Robert Frost, Brewster Village, 1945,” on an off-white 5.25 x 6.5 sheet imprinted with the text of his poem 'The Road Not Taken.' In fine condition, with light toning to the edges.

"Brewster Village" was neighbor Erastus H. Hewitt's affectionate name for the Brewster Street neighborhood in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Frost purchased a house at 35 Brewster Street in 1941 and lived until his death in 1963. Hewitt, who lived a few doors down, later recounted their friendship in a reminiscence titled ‘Robert Frost of Brewster Village,’ delivered to the Cambridge Historical Society in 1965 (Proceedings, Volume 40).
