FAMOUS MEN: King George III (1738-1820) King of the United Kingdom 1760-1820. Ink signature ('George R', as King) on a slim oblong 8vo piece evidently removed from the head of a document, with a blind embossed paper seal affixed; Richard Byrd (1888-1957) American Naval officer, Pioneer Aviator and Polar Explorer. D.S., R E Byrd, being a signed cheque, Winchester, Virginia, 20th January 1932. The partially printed cheque, completed in another hand, is drawn on the Farmers & Merchants National Bank & Trust Co. and is made payable to E. W. Goodrich for the sum of $3.60. A perforated bank cancellation only very slightly affects Byrd's signature; Bret Harte (1836-1902) American short story writer and poet whose fiction is associated with the California Gold Rush. A.L.S., Bret Harte, two pages, 8vo, Upper Hamilton Terrace, London, 16th May 1887, to Miss. Alexander. Harte commences his letter stating 'This is not the photograph I promised you, but one that was taken in Bournemouth a week or two ago' and continues to add 'I find that the negative of the one I meant for you has been sent by Mr. Hall to Paris for engraving, and consequently I cannot get you a copy until it is returned'. Some slight traces of former mounting and very light staining to Harte's letter and the others with a few minor faults, G to about VG, 3
