Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. BUCKSTONE, John Baldwin (1802-1879), manager of the Haymarket Theatre and actor. Autograph letter signed to fellow theatre manager Benjamin Nottingham Webster (1797-1882), [London, n.d.]. Single sheet folded, written on one side in brown ink, signed by Buckstone. Light folds from orig…inal dispatch, otherwise in clean, presentable condition. very good. Buckstone, actor, dramatist and manager of the Haymarket Theatre, here writes to his fellow actor-manager Benjamin Nottingham Webster concerning casting arrangements for a forthcoming production. Webster had suggested the comic actress Fanny Stirling, but Buckstone explains here that he already has 'three ladies in view' and therefore has 'nothing for her to do'. He adds that he is somewhat overworked and unwilling to incur further expense until he can judge what may be achieved during the remaining fractional part of the season. An interesting letter involving three well known Victorian names of the theatre. Signed by Author(s).

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. On a bifolium the blank second leaf of which is laid down on part of a leaf from an album. Folded twice for postage. The recipient is 'Henry Spicer Esq', presumably a relation of the artist of the same name (d.1804; see ODNB), several of whose theatrica…l portraits are in the Garrick Club collection. Webster has been given 'infinite pleasure' by his 'generous offer': 'Be assured the Dramatic College is a most prosperous institution & well deserving your patronage.' He asks him to 'call at our offices 15 Bedford Street Covent Garden', where he will 'see a full confirmation of what I state'. In a postscript he asks him to allow Webster to 'announce this extra Godsend this week. The cost does not exceed £250 as per agreement'.

1p, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. The recipient is not named. An interesting letter, indicating the relationship between two major theatrical figures in Victorian London. The main body of the letter reads: 'Dear Sir, | You really must excuse my incurring any such responsibility as that you would impose upon me. I am una…ble to controul Mr. Webster's actions and do not see why I should take upon myself a risk in a matter in which I have no possible interest.' Mathews has added subsequently, in a smaller hand: '(especially as my private belief is that Mr Webster never reads the pieces at all. He has at least half a dozen in hand at this moment that I know of.)'.

The phrase 'Box and Cox' has entered the English language. See the OED, and the two men's entries in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, landscape 12mo. Neatly inserted in a trimmed windowpane mount. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded twice. Signed 'John M Morton'. Begins: 'Dear Webster. / As Mr Anson informs me that you are "on the forwa…rd course to regenerated health" I hope I need not apologise for writing again. I find a letter of your's respecting Woodcock's little game [produced in 1864] & two one act farces, you offer me £15 per Act with the privilege of repurchasing the pieces at the same price in the event of your not having produced them'. He asks if he will do the same 'in the case of the 4 Acts' he has recently sent him. 'If not, let me beg of you to return them by post, as I really cannot afford the expence of coming to Town!' He continues: 'I was served with a Writ yesterday for the first time in my life!!' and adds ruefully: 'I'm afraid the veteran farce writer's "little game" is nearly up!" He concludes with surprising candour: 'Thank God I could never get any children - not for want of trying I'm ashamed to say.'.

1p., 12mo. In fair condition, on aged and worn paper. He has had a conversation with 'Tomkins', and as a consequence has 'made a few alterations in the last scene of the "Hulk"'. He asks him to read the last scene and 'manage, if possible, to get the Prompter's Copy set right before the reading of the Piece'. He feels his change…s make the play 'more original, and more likely to render the Piece effective'. With postscript. 'The Haunted Hulk', a Nautical Drama in two Acts was performed at the Adelphi in 1831.

3pp., 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged and worn. For information on the eccentric Moran see F. David Roberts' article 'Who Ran the London "Globe" in the 1830's, 1840's, and 1850's?' (1971). The letter begins: 'My Dear Webster | If you want a useful subsidiary piece producible without cost or trouble. It contains a part that… of Frederick William of Prussia admirably adapted for your own filling up. The piece turns on subjects which at this moment specially engage public attention the aggrandizement of Prussia & Ranke's history just published gives the story & characters in the spirit of the play. The original was acted at Saxe Gotha before Queen Victoria during her German trip & has since been for some reason or other interdicted.' He briefly touches on the characters and the translation. Postscript reads: 'I forgot to say that the title is "Where's His Regal Highness?"' He forwards an address on the third page.
