1909157971909. One page on Kipling's "Bateman's Burwash Sussex" stationery. 14th Aug. 1909.<br/> <br/> This letter addressed to "Dear Sir" but with the recipient's name and address "9 King's Cross Road W.C." typed below reads: I have received your letter of the 12th together with the file of correspondence which I return herewith. I am only sorry that as I know nothing about the business side of inventions it is out of my power to assist you. Yours truly signed: Rudyard Kipling. We do not know who John Proctor was; nor did Kipling -- but Proctor had apparently sent a whole file regarding some invention he was working on. Perhaps he contacted Kipling because he knew the famous author had written an 1893 book titled MANY INVENTIONS The letter is in very good condition a couple of small holes and tape-marks not affecting print. Basic content but a fine example of Kipling's signature. unknown

In the 1920s and 1930s after burning through his father the poet and children's author Eugene Field's genuine estate his son Eugene "Pinny" Field II teamed up with the Chicago bookseller Harry Dayton Sickles to "enlarge" the late poet's library. In order to manufacture instant provenance for otherwise ordinary books they reproduced Eugene Field Sr's original bookplate oddly not present here wrote signed inscriptions to Field Sr. signed his name and "Chicago" and the date of either 1893 or 1895. They were very fond of forging Kipling's signature. Latest research suggests it was Sickles who was the forger Field the willing accomplice. Note on front free endpaper "Signed by Kipling" apparently someone was fooled.</p> . The Century Co. unknown
