TLS to A.W. Brickell, Esq.

ELIOT, Thomas Stearns. TLS to A.W. Brickell, Esq. on the headed paper of Faber & Faber Ltd, Feb. 6th 1945. 1945
Six lines typed on verso only of paper, signed by Eliot in ink, with a short ('B's') pencil annotation in an unknown hand; letterhead sl. marked, old folds, a few small marginal tears.

¶Brief letter returning a 'drawing of Shelley's home in Marlow', regretting that no suitable book for it is forthcoming, and declining to keep it on file. A.W. Brickell was an art collector, insurance broker, and associate of Graham Greene and Lloyd Osbourne. He appears to have written constant letters to famous writers, which may explain the politely detached tone of this missive from the great modernist.
