Letters, 1822-1831.

The collection comprises four items. Jackson sends Mr. Garle a letter of excuse upon receiving the news of his father's death (1822). Writes his friend Hills that the illness has left him "in a state of great debility," which prevents him from exhibiting at the Royal Academy "for the first time in 24 years" (1831, Apr. 6 - he died two months later). An undated lecture pass for the Royal Academy is signed by the artist. The collection also includes a letter signed "Jn Jackson" addressed to Carpenter in Bond Street, announcing the return of a borrowed book. The signature and handwriting are different, presumably by another John Jackson (1822 Sept. 18)

4 items.
