Arnold Bennett letter.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/420167424

This undated, unsigned autograph draft of a letter is written to Mr. Lewell Collins discussing money matters related to the writing of one of Bennett's plays. "I wrote the book -- 50%. You do the play -- 50%. If you cannot do the play, why should I lower my percentage? Still, I quite recognize that in interesting Mr. Knoblauch (Knoblock) in the play you have interested a man of exceptional skill in such matters." Bennett collaborated with Edward Knoblock on a number of plays: Milestones (1912), London Life (1924), and Mr. Prohack (1927, based on his novel). Bennett may very well be referring to the latter play in this letter.
