Add to basket4to. 1 p. Printed address. Age toned, folds. With envelope. To Mr. Scoville from the New York Telephone Co.: Can't we have a New York Telephone Directory? Nearly all of our telephoning kup here is with New York, and it makeds a lot of troubles and delay every time, to be obliged to have addresses and telephone numbers looked up…in New York before we can transact business. Wouldn't it be for your interest as well as ours to save time and labor, and wouldn't it encourage New York business to faciliatate matters at this end? Perhaps this seems a good deal of talk, just for a telephone book, but the fact is we need it, and are willing to do almost anything to get it, even to paying for it. Won't you send the book along -- two books, if possible -- and let us know the extent of the damages? []".

Add to basketOblong 8vo. 1 p. Draft for a Viennese lecture programme: "The Lucerne Girl - 18 minutes / The Mexican Plug - 10 [minutes] / Encounter with an Interviewer - 12 [minutes] / [Altogether:] 40 minutes". - From October 1898 until May 1899 the Clemens family lived in Vienna, where his the writer's daughters Clara and Jean received pian…o lessons from Theodor Leschetitzky. After eight months at the Hotel Métropole they moved to nearby Kaltenleutgeben in May 1898, where his wife Olivia and Jean took a cold-water cure at the balneological sanitarium of Wilhelm Winternitz. Clemens himself attended the marksmen's parade (26 June 1898) and the funeral procession of Empress Elisabeth (17 September 1898) in Vienna, lodging at Hotel Krantz (later the Ambassador). This is where the unidentified collector must have approached the great humorist for a scrap of paper in his hand, at the foot of which is the annotation (in German): "From Marc Twain. 24 Feb. 99. Hotel Krantz".

Add to basket3 pages. 8vo. On black-edged mourning paper. With envelope. To Miss Helen Ingleby "& the other friends", of Heacham Hall, Norfolk, describing how his family and friends would play the Meisterschaft to audiences of hundred friends (".not ten of whom knew the German tongue, but they always had an enjoyable time just the same, for…we played it with tremendous spirit. I think I appeared in only one scene. it was between papa & the German boarding-house Frau, & these parts were done in English, & were not written down, but made up as we went along as a convenience for us incapables, as I was not able to memorize a part."). 'IT IS A PLEASANTLY ASTONISHING THING TO BE GREETED WITH SALUTATIONS FROM THE BLOOD OF POCAHONTAS' Mark Twain writes to a descendant of John Rolfe and Pocahontas at Heacham Hall, Norfolk; this being the Rolfe family seat, which the princess and her son, Thomas Rolfe, visited in 1618, a year before her death; Twain adding that "it is a long time since anything less expected has happened to me. It makes me feel pretty recent, as to American origin". His three-act Meisterschaft (1888) was described as a 'Patent Universally-Applicable Automatically-Adjustable Language Drama. adjustable to any tongue, and performable in any tongue'.
