From a Motion Picture About Edward Weston (cover title). Saddle-stitched wrappers. [12] pp.. Charming letter from Edward Weston to fellow photographer and friend Donald Ross thanking him for the gift of some new bedsheets. “Me and Star Bright send love to la familia Ross, and mil gracias for the wonderful sheets. They will truly comfort this old ruin. Help – this writing is slipping off the page. To go back to sheets, I don‘t see how I rate them, but I‘ll leave investigations to Congress. The latch string is out. Use it! Abrazos de Edward 10-19-‘53. P.S. When I started to fold this note, I found what you will find on the other side! Well – darned if I‘ll write this over, not with my jitters jittering. Forgive me, and amuse yourselves. E.“ Weston suffered through Parkinsons disease and the consequent “jitters“ troubled him. Here he faces it with good humor in the virtual company of his friends. The verso of this sheet shows the financial side of Weston‘s photography with prices listed in pencil and accounts receivable. Included in the lot are two small format booklets, one published to accompany the Willard van Dyke documentary about Weston “The Photographer“ and the photography booklet from a museum series dating to 1934.
