Sellers (Peter) Group of typed letters signed ('Pete' or 'Peter') to Alan Clare, one saying "I would love you to teach me some harmonies, as I shall have plenty of time to sit around, so to speak, and it would be great to try various permutations. I do hope you realize I am not a pianist of note, and that whilst I can still knock out the odd paradiddle on the drums or, as we say in military circles, "that good old kettle drum", my piano prowess is rather limited, although I do sound considerably better on such a thing as the Melatron. However, with your expert guidance, perhaps I can explore new avenues of interesting sound", one page, some creasing, minor stain, 4to, Beverly Hills, California, 1 June 1964; another letter reads "I am so pleased to know that the old stereo set up is working a treat. Once the bug gets you, I promise you you are really hooked, and it looks as though you are. It will eventually reach the stage where you tell everyone in the room to be quiet - in fact there is nothing more infuriating than having friends round to listen to music on discs, and they chat half way through the record. We had a wonderful evening when you came over with the boys, and it sounds great on tape. As a matter of fact, as good as some professional recordings I have heard, and you didn't play like a twat, mate, you have only got to listen to the tape to know that", one page, folding marks with minor splitting, foxing, 4to, Brookfield, Surrey, 10 September 1964; in another letter Sellers thanks Alan "for sending my children those beautiful presents. They were absolutely delighted by them, and Michael has been making small holes in the ice on the pond in order to use his fishing rod. So far he has not caught anything except a rather bad cold. Bert tells me that you think I have the needle with you. You naughty man! I haven't been in touch with you because I have not long returned from Paris, and there were a million and one things to do", one page, 4to, Brookfield, Surrey, 6 January 1965; in the latest note, Peter mentions the terrible shock of his mother's death and thanks Alan for the "sweet and Thoughtful" letter he sent, one page, 4to, 37 Panton Street, London, 6 February 1967; and two other typed notes signed by Sellers.
