Bertram, Charles (James Bassett). Charles Bertram ALS. Dated March 10, 1899, Bertram writes on Hotel de Paris of Benares letterhead to “Will” (possibly Will Goldston) mentioning that his tour of India is in progress and going well, but that his correspondent should keep him in mind, as Bertram will return to England in May, 1899 and that he is interested in new tricks, “mango included.” The latter is a reference to the venerable Mango Tree Growth, a feature in the repertoires of many Indian street magicians. One 4to sheet, with old folds and minor chips from mailing. Signed boldly, “Charles Bertram.” Rare.
