141927874Big Sur California May 14 1945 1419. In fine condition. Single sheet 28 x 21.5 cm written on the recto only in green ink approximately 175 words. Stamped envelope present. Henry Miller responds to an inquiry from a young collector Jack Aldridge who is serving in the Army and in the course of his letter makes an interesting confession: "Dear Lieutenant Jack! I wish I were good enough to make the sort of water colors you ask for! I'm not. I can only do what happens so to speak. I am no draughtsman at all. And nudes are especially hard for me. In fact there's no relation whatever in subject mater between my writings and my painting - which is as it should be I think. . . . Incidentally Porter is bringing out a water color folio of mine that will give you an idea of what I do. I'm not very literal. I'll send you something one day on a chance. You don't need to buy it! Right now I'm busy writing. Good luck to you. Henry Miller." <br/><br/> Big, Sur, California, May 14, 1945 unknown books
