Typed Letter Signed (“Pearl S. Buck”)

1942.

Price: $100.00

Unbound. Typed Letter Signed from Buck dated 25 February 1942 on her New York stationery, to an editor stating "Enclosed is something which I would like to say to the colored people of this country. I am sending copies of this letter to colored journals, and shall be glad to have you use it if you wish...." Whatever was enclosed is no longer present. Fine. Apparently Buck sent several copies of this letter to editors, as we have a second copy, bound into a copy of her 1942 novel *Dragon Seed*, however, all evidence indicates that she did hand sign each one.
