With blank integral leaf. Some light dust staining and age wear and a neat split at the base of the vertical central fold, not affecting the text or signature. About VG The present letter was written, in the year after the construction of the Crystal Palace, from Chatsworth, the estate of the 6th Duke of Devonshire in Derbyshire, where the 20 year old Paxton was employed as head gardener until 1858.
