About this Item
Description:
Rare autograph letter signed by Rudyard Kipling. Octodecimo, one page on Brown's Hotel letterhead, the letter reads in full, "Sept. 13. 1923. Dear Lord Athlone, I should have just everything aside for the Middlesex Hospital dinner on the 2nd, were it not that on that date I must be in Scotland to meet engagements, made a year ago, in connection with my installation as Rector of St. Andrews early in the month. With very many regrets . Sincerely yours, Rudyard Kipling." Double matted and framed with a portrait of Kipling. In fine condition. The piece measures 16.3 inches by 14 inches. English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist Rudyard Kipling's major works include The Jungle Book (1894), Kim (1901) and many short stories and poems. Kipling was born in India, which inspired much of his work and his innovative stories for children have become timeless classics. Kipling was one of the most popular writers in the British Empire, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1907.
