18781433461878. An interesting autograph letter signed G. Doré in French approximately 80 words on 17 lines dated 24 June 1878. The previous year Doré had illustrated Ludovico Ariosto's influential poem Orlando Furioso published in London by Hachette and Co. In 1878 he produced several landscapes including Landscape in Scotland exhibited his woodcut entitled Ganymede at the Cercle de l'Union Artistique and showed sculptures at the Paris Salon. The Daily Telegraph commenting on his works at the Salon observed "It is not often that many-sided genius is so quickly appreciated by the jealous world of art" Conder The Doré Gallery: Descriptive Catalogue of the Pictures by M. Gustave Doré on View at 35 New Bond Street London. The same month Doré gained notice at the Exposition Universelle in Paris for a plaster cast of his eleven-foot vase "Poem of the Vine". Although the vase was the subject of much comment and admiration the sculptor received no awards for it. "There was a great deal of comment on this lack of appreciation evinced by the French for their fellow-countryman especially as 'La Nuit' another of Doré's superb creations occupied a place in one of the interior galleries of the Champs de Mars buildings. It is a curious fact that nowadays most people are of opinion that Doré received a great many medals and was usually one of the most distinguished contributors to the Paris Salon. As a matter of fact he never received one; not even an honorable mention" Roosevelt The Life and Reminiscences of Gustave Doré p. 440. "Cher maitre Pour la troisième fois depuis hier je recois inclus dans des lettres d'amis de Londres le feuillet détaché du Daily Telegraph du 22; c'est vous dire la très vive sensation qu'ont produites là-bas les lignes si chaleureuses que vous m'avez fait l'amitié de consacrer à la description de ma nouvelle oeuvre. Je m'empresse de vous adresser mes plus affectueux remerciements que je ne veux pas tarder d'aller renouveler de vive voix. À vous bien cordialement." "Dear Master For the third time since yesterday I have received included in letters from London friends the page taken from the Daily Telegraph of the 22nd; this is to tell you of the very lively sensation produced there by the warm lines that you so kindly devoted to the description of my new work. I hasten to forward you my most affectionate thanks that before long I hope to renew to you in person." Single sheet of notepaper watermarked "Freres" 204 x 260 mm sometime folded for mailing.

27744This American screenwriter director producer and playwright co-authored the screenplay for "Boys Town" winning an Academy Award for Best Writing; in 1948 he became chief of production at MGM Studios ascending to the presidency in 1951 with the departure of Louis B. Mayer filling that office until 1956; among his plays are the Tony Award-winning "Sunrise at Campobello" for which he also wrote the screenplay. ANS 1p 7¼" X 10½" n.p. n.y. 1966. Fine. Near the bottom of a one sentence typed note dated 6 April 1966 sent him by noted Lincoln Scholar Arnold F. Gates 1914-93 on letterhead of "The Civil War Round Table of New York" Schary pens a bold reply in blue ballpoint. Gates had asked Schary "If you can make this one I would be very pleased to have you attend as my guest" referring no doubt to a Civil War Round Table guest lecture -- to which Schary replied "Dear Mr. Gates -- I would have enjoyed being there -- by some breakdown of U.S. Postal Service -- your invitation reached me on the 20th of April -- Perhaps next time -- Thanks -- Dore Schary." Most unusual in this form! Schary produced the 1955 documentary "The Battle of Gettysburg" hence his proven interest in the topic. unknown
