An interesting range of content. See her entry in the Oxford DNB. The recipient Philip Dosse was proprietor of Hansom Books, publisher of a stable of seven arts magazines including Books and Bookmen and Plays and Players. See 'Death of a Bookman' by the novelist Sally Emerson (editor of 'Books and Bookmen' at the time of Dosse's suicide), in Standpoint magazine, October 2018. The letter, with her printed letterhead, is somewhat worn and creased, the other four items are in good condition. Three items (including the letter) signed 'Doris Moore' and one 'DLM'. The cards are letters typed on unillustrated and unaddressed postcards (also with her printed letterhead); the unsigned typed note is on her printed compliments slip. ONE: TLS, 22 June 1976. 1p, 4to. She is enclosing her review of 'On Human Finery', noting: 'It can be cut, but in that case criticisms rather than compliments must go - except the vital last criticism that Quentin Bell's beautiful sartorial anarchy will lead to despotism'. She turns to the subject of 'Viva' (i.e. Viva King), whom she had known 'quite well' in past years, and the book she is writing on Byron's daughter: 'Ada, Countess of Lovelace' (1977). 'I recollect her telling me that Willie [i.e. Viva King's husband William King (1894-1958), British Museum curator] was descended from Byron via Ada, but as I had no interest in genealogy at that date (and very little now unless I'm obliged to know it for what I am writing), I didn't enquire how.' She discusses the matter, noting that Lady Bryon 'often exercised power for the mere sake of it', and commenting regarding a family feud: 'There'll be something about this in my forthcoming biography of Ada, but I have left out that, under her mother's influence, one of Ada's dying wishes was that her husband would not make it up with his brother. | However, Locke King attended her funeral. Perhaps Viva knows what the cause of hostility was. I hope she still has her fine house in Thurloe Square.' TWO: TCS, 24 June 1976. She is sending a portrait for publication, noting that he 'might prefer something without a hat (though I always wear one)'. THREE: TN on compliments slip, 30 December 1976. She apologises for not being able to give 'a happier review to the book by Arthur Calder-Marshall. It's really most feeble. [inserted here: 'The book, not the review I trust.'] I was going to the Channel Islands when I spoke to you on the telephone, and had only glanced at it; but having delayed reviewing till my return, I felt I couldn't say "After all I'd rather not do it."' FOUR: TCS, 14 March 1977. She has been in Eastbourne, 'where I had gone to grapple with the problems of my autobiography', and is glad Lady Longford is to review the books in question'. The rest of the card concerns a 'harrowing' experience concerning Dosse's mother: 'What a tactless moment to choose for a revelation requiring delicacy! [.] It reminds me very much of the appalling shock I felt when I learned that my ex-husband, whom I had divorced with great reluctance, to enable him to marry someone else, had actually been the lover of my daughter's nurse - and she was his new wife. [.] He died a year ago, and the "nurse" is now rich and I wondering how I can possibly go on keeping up this expensive house - where you must come and see me one day. This very personal disclosure I offer in exchange for yours.' She ends: 'I was sorry about slating the Calder-Marshall book but what could I do?' FIVE: TCS, 19 April 1977. 'Don't I get any payment for my review of the Calder-Marshall book? It was not the sort of work which will be much of an asset to my collection and as it was the first unfavourable review I have ever written, it was all the harder to do it. I shouldn't think many copies have been sold at that huge price - unless there are Arab oil sheiks wanting to know about ladies in the 18th century.' She ends with praise of Books and Bookmen, which she reads 'from cover to cover, though slowly'.…

Zustand: Very good. - 89 words typed on a sheet of his gray personalized letterhead, 5 inches high by 8 inches wide, with his address printed down the right margin. Signed "Guido Bruno". Folded once for mailing. Near fine. Bruno's letter is sending examples of his work to a "Mr. Fuller". We speculate that this might be Buckminster Fuller, who was not yet an architect at this time and who lived in Greenwich Village and knew the same people and frequented the same clubs and bars as Guido Bruno. "Here then you have the result of your imprudent praize [sic] of a writer's work. It should you [sic] teach you a lesson, never to encourage a scribbler's vanity. The few little volumes may amuse you for a few minutes, whenever you find time to glanze [sic] through their pages."Guido Bruno [1884-1942], who at this date had moved to Ridley Park, Pennsylvania where his adopted daughter lived, was a well known Greenwich Village character and small-press publisher, sometimes called "the Barnum of Bohemia". He was based at his "Garret on Washington Square" where tourists could pay an admission fee to observe "genuine Bohemian" artists at work. From the garret he published little magazines such as Bruno's Weekly, Bruno's Monthly, Bruno's Bohemia and Bruno Chap Books. Among authors he published were Alfred Kreymborg, Djuna Barnes, Marianne Moore, Alfred Douglas and Sadakichi Hartmann. He was also a close associate of Frank Harris. For a brief time he operated the Little Thimble Theater with Charles Edison.…

ONE: Typed Letter Signed ('Henry') from Moore to Juda ('Dear Hans'). On letterhead of Hoglands, Perry Green, Much Hadham, Herts. 29 March 1973. 1p., 12mo. He thanks Juda for telling him about 'the ART AUCTION in aid of "Save the Children Fund." | I do know about it as some years ago I gave a sculpture, and then a lithograph for this fund.' Moore has given so much work 'for these worthy causes [.] that the Inland Revenue people, realising that they were losing a lot of tax through my work not being sold in the normal way, made a ruling, (which I think applies only to me), that I can only give work "to the Tate Gallery, or any other public gallery, or for a public monument of national importance." I was relieved when they made this ruling, it solved many problems for me.' He concludes with best wishes to Juda and his wife the photograph Elspeth Juda. TWO: Autograph driving directions from Hoglands to Hoddesdon, drawn in blue ink by Moore. On Hoglands letterhead. 1p., 12mo. Representing, along the right-hand margin, a snaking road route up from Hoglands, in the bottom right-hand corner, joining the A10 which is drawn vertically across the page below the letterhead, to Hoddesdon in the top left-hand corner, from which an arrow points leftwards off the page. THREE: Copy of typed letter from Juda to Moore. 13 May 1965. 1p., 8vo. Attached to Item Two. He thanks Moore for a 'wonderful afternoon'. 'Last night at Victor's Retrospective Exhibition - impressive and beautifully staged - we looked at our favourite Moores; the knife-edged two-piece which was bought by the Tate in 1963 appealed to Elspeth, who remembers that you showed us part of this knife-edged piece last Tuesday; the other part you looked for was not there.' He concludes by askigng whether there is 'a possibility of your letting us have a similar piece as the one at the Tate?' FOUR: Copy of typed letter from Juda to Moore. 23 March 1973. 1p., 8vo. The letter to which ONE replies. He realises that 'the flood of begging letters for worthy causes' Moore receives 'must increase daily', but is writing on behalf of his 'dear and old friend' Mrs Lola Hahn-Warburg, who is in charge of the Save the Children Fund art auction. 'If you could see your way to part with a little sketch or drawing, it would certainly be the highlight of the Auction.' FIVE: Copy of typed letter from Juda to Moore. 3 April 1973. 1p., 8vo. Moore's letter 'makes it very clear that you cannot possibly be as generous as you would like to be'. SIX: Copy of typed letter from Juda to Moore. 29 August 1974. 1p., 8vo. He is approaching the age of seventy ('I think you might still remember the event.'). 'I have given myself one gift: to thank you personally for the enlightenment you have given for all those years. | The more my eyesight deteriorates, the more vision there seems to be and "to see things" is a quality which you have given not only to me but to many thousands if not millions of people.' He describes three of his own sculptures which he is sending Moore under separate cover, one of which 'is, of course, based on an objet trouve which I only slightly manipulated before it was cast at the Central School of Art and Design (in which I still take a very active interest as you know). [.] To send you these three items is my only birthday present. What you should not do is to clutter up further your huge collection of similar if not more congenial items.'.…
