CHARLES DICKENS (1812-70)
A one-page autograph letter, signed by Dickens, from Devonshire Terrace, Wednesday, 22nd April, 1846, to Samuel Palmer, stating: "If you can spare me the little book containing the published letters I shall be much obliged to you, as I wish to refer to it" (slightly damaged at corners after removal from an album).
