Lot Description

[ROYALTY].  WINDSOR, Edward, Duke of (1894-1972). Autograph letter signed ("Eddie"), as Prince of Wales. Oxford, 14 November 1912.  


1 page, 8vo, with integral blank leaf, on Magdalen College stationery, horizontal creasing, with very light soiling and stray marks.

Writing to his schoolmate, John, the Prince of Wales remarks on upcoming Friday night plans: "James told me about the seats. I do not mind Hansell coming in the least; it will be very nice. I am going to pick Eddie up at the digs at about 10.45. so I will take the box then if you will let me have it & tell me what you would like engraved..." He ends the letter with a humorous exclamation: "I have just returned from an awful heavy dinner with the vice Chancellor!!" 


This lot is located in Cincinnati.
