Typed Letter Signed with a handwritten addition
West Newton MA 1956. unbound. very good. 1 page 11 x 8.5 inches West Newton Massachusetts September 19 1956 writing to an old college buddy and reminiscing about the past in part: ".Good to hear from you. It brings back a host of memories very sharply and clearly from the day I first stepped into the Chem lab on 10 April 1942 see I still date things Navy-style---never broke the habit till my last visit in 1947. We match you in children Gertrude and I but in the reverse order of sexes. And they're much younger since we got started later. David is 5 years old and has just entered kindergarten; while Robyn Joan is 1 1/2. We own a house now see address above in West Newton a Boston suburb. We bought it last February. You'll remember how I used to rant against owning houses. I'm still against it but with 2 kids we needed the room. As soon as they grow up and get married I intend to move to a penthouse in Manhattan and never look at a tree again.P.S As for best-sellers unlikely---but I've been averaging 3 books a year counting textbooks since 1950 and they all are fair-sellers---so I'll settle." Very good condition.<br/><br/> American biochemist who became one of the world's most beloved writers of science fiction and popular science books.<br/><br/> unknown books

ASIMOV Isaac 1920 1992; CIARDI John
Handwritten postscript signed "Isaac" on Ciardi's letter
Middlebury College Vermont 1972. unbound. 2 pages 11 x 8.5 inches Middlebury College Vermont August 27 1972. Written on a letter sent by his friend John Ciardi 1916 - 1986 acclaimed poet and etymologist to his wife Janet Jeppson Asimov whereby the poet jokingly compares Isaac's behavior at a Bird Watchers Conference to that of new species of a promiscuous bird in part: ".It seems only fair to tell you that the Conference Bird Watchers Club has compiled a series of exhausted reports on the "Isaacanary" and concluded that you are an endangered species. The "Isaacanary" has taken like the Cow Bird to laying her eggs in the nests of other birds. I will not enclose the 42 petitions we have received from the ladies of the Conference. They are for the archives. I will satisfy myself here by pointing out that all of them begin with 'Help!' 'Mayday' or 'S.O.S.' I speak only out of disinterested concern for the good of the conference when I say you must never let this bird come to any Conference unattended. When you fly supervisory.he comes recommended and atoned for. When he is alone every one spends all day picking egg yolk off the scalp. He has even flirted with me - mostly by way of practice to be sure - and who can tolerate that when he could be flirting with you and not for any damn practice This here "Isaacanary" I assure you is no substitute for the Love Bird." At some point John Ciardi requested that Isaac Asimov mail this letter to his wife Janet of which he complied but not before adding: "Dear Janet: Big John insists I mail this illiterate effusion. Please understand that when he says I 'lay eggs' he means I flirt and get nowhere. I am the laughing stock of the Conference." Horizontal folds; fine condition.<br/><br/> Iconic American author and biochemist best known for his works of Science Fiction and Popular Science.<br/><br/> unknown books
