Title: Typed Letter, signed, to Carl Weissner - with photograph by Linda Lee Beighle Author: Bukowski, Charles Place: No place [San Pedro] Publisher: Date: 11-10-80 Description: Typed Letter, signed, with holograph postscript. 11x8½". With original envelope. Signed at close 'Hank', with sketch of little man and bottle at bottom and sketch of a bird at top. Also, a 7x5" black & white photographs of Bukowski, credited to Linda Lee Beighle on rear. Letter to Bukowski's European agent and German translator, Carl Weissner. Bukowski writes with his usual lament over his existence: "I seem to be buried under a mass of various troubles, it drains the balls, but some of them seem to be vanishing--troubles, not balls. I think mostly I get in the way of myself; there's nothing to do here finally but to lock into this room and listen to the typer, drink the wine." He also offers his appreciation of Weissner and invites him for a drink: "You, and something to drink. Without the two of you I'm sure I would have thrown it in. If you can come to S.F. for a week in April it would be wonderful but only if you can make it down here and lift a few with me. You must! But don't bring Burroughs." The photo, by his future wife, is of Bukowski in a batter's stance with his cane for a bat, before the Carlton Plaza apartments. Lot Amendments Condition: Letter creased from mailing; fine.
