Autograph letter signed from B.F. Stevens, London, to J. Parker Norris, Philadelphia [manuscript], 1877 April 19.

Stevens writes that he is sending half a dozen copies of Page's Study of Shakespeare Portraits. "It is believed that a literary discussion of considerable interest will shortly grow out of this little book as several Shakespearian scholars of admitted ability puzzling their brains over Page's conundrums and appearances." On letterhead from 4 Trafalgar Square, London. Addressed to Norris at 204 South 7th St. Philadelphia.

2 leaves ; 21 x 13 cm.
