Letter from Laura Jackson to Ellsworth Mason, 1971-09-11, 1969-06-23
Scope and Contents
"I had only understood that you, as a person of bibliographical interests, with literary interests attendant on these, and a love of collecting, had made yourself into a collector of Robert Graves' writings. Further, where someone comes into friendly relations with me who has some background of professional connection with the Graves-work subject, I am no censor of the person's past, or unarrestable or irremovable continuance of the past into the present."
....
"Epilogue is not part of the history of the Seizin Press. It came into being in 1935 out of, straight out of, developments in my thinking, knowing."
....
"I here send you in rough hand-written copy on Gertrude Stein. There are some other comments involving her in relation to an attribution of likeness to hers of some of my writing..."
