Flint (William Russell)

Flint (William Russell)

Four colour prints after paintings by William Russell Flint, each titled and signed by the artist along the lower margin, some creasing and fraying, v.s.; with an autograph letter signed ('W Russell Flint') to Mr Stewart, reading "Indeed I wish I could help you to a copy of 'The Lisping Goddess' for your customer. I handed the entire edition (240 for sale) to Messrs Frost & Reed and they appear to have disposed of the lot with startling promptitude. I wish it could be seen because it is an unusual production over which I spent three years. The Times... review was comically grudging and gave little indication of its interest and will not be so hard with my next book 'Breakfast in Perigord'. It is printed and just going to the binders but I have not yet decided on a distributor", two pages, mild folding marks, 4to, Peel Cottage, 80 Peel Street, 20 July 1968. (5)
