This lot consists of an etching of Mark Twain in bed, a clipped signature on card, and a signed note by Sam Clemens. Mark Twain was the pseudonym or writing name of Samuel Clemens (1835 - 1910), famed American author and humorist, and the signature of Mark Twain on card is bold and highly legible. The signature of S Clemens is visible, but fainter, on the typed note dated 1904. The clipped card might have been signed earlier than the typed note, but we’re not sure.
The etching is 4 1/2 x 5 3/8 inches, the signed card is 1 3/4 x 3 inches wide, and the typed note is 6 1/4 x 3 1/2 inches wide. A nice treasure to start a Twain collection.
