Laid in is a typed and SIGNED letter (TLS) With great love Mary Wood and dated July 27th, 1952 to a librarian named Etheldred of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Numerous corrections and notations. The letter talks of the summer, her idea for a Japanese Flower Show, news about her publisher writing that her book is selling 1-3 copies a day in Japan, and a comment that Adlai Stevenson has what it will take.
