Autograph Postcard Signed ("Ez P")

Price: $1,600.00

Unbound. Postcard written by Pound in pencil. Very near fine. Pound's response to a request from poet Richard Wirtz Emerson, editor of "The Golden Goose" poetry journal, who writes for permission to read some of Pound's work on a radio program. Dated May 12 [1950], sent from St. Elizabeth's Hospital where he was imprisoned, Pound responds tersely to Emerson's detailed letter, granting permission in his idiosyncratic way, his text reading: "R W Em's re. of 10th inst. O.K. Ez P. S. Liz. 12 May" A retained carbon of Emerson's original two page letter to Pound is also present.
