Choice author letter tipped opposite title page an extra-illustrated frontispiece: TLS 1p 7�" X 10�" Wequetonsing Michigan 1945 August 10. Addressed to Mr. Roberts. Near fine. Outstanding content discussing his first book reading in part: "About 'American Beauty' it was published in January 1929 by Covici Friede who also published my second book 'Strange Capers' a couple of years later. The firm no longer exists; when it folded up Pat Covici the president went to the Viking Press taking his Number One author John Steinbeck with him. It seems a long time ago now but as I remember there was only one edition of 'American Beauty' but several printings. Something over 4000 copies were sold in all which was supposed to be fairly good for a first novel in those days. It was published in England in 1930 I think by Thornton Butterworth and until the second world war was still in print there. I did not publish anything before 'American Beauty' except newspaper and magazine articles and an occasional short story or literary review -- but in my childhood I wrote a great many other stories including three full-length novels all completed before the age of 19 none of which fortunately ever saw the light of day." Superb biographical content. Meeker 1902-71 was an American journalist and novelist noted for historical topics; books include "American Beauty" his first 1929 "Strange Capers" 1931 "Vestal Virgin" 1934 the bestselling "The Ivory Mischief" 1942 "The Far Away Music" 1945 and "Prairie Avenue" 1949.
