BIB_ID
106561
Accession number
MA 4224
Creator
Derby, Edward Henry Stanley, Earl of, 1826-1893.
Display Date
London, England, 1850 March 13.
Description
1 item (1 page) ; 18.0 x 11.0 cm
Notes
Written from 10 York Street.
Endorsed with an accounting of services provided and amount owed.
Signed "E. [or G.] H. Stanley." A note on file, from an unidentified researcher, questions the attribution to Derby, though the handwriting does resemble that of Derby on an 1870 letter at the Morgan Library (though it is smaller and more controlled on MA 4224).
A pencil note reads "1850," but if the letter is from Derby it is likely not from that year, when he was apparently in Brazil.
From Autographs of Sovereigns and Illustrious Persons.
Summary
Arranging an appointment to sit for a portrait.
