Fu Manchu (David Bamberg). Fu-Manchu TLS to Virgil. Buenos Aires, Jan. 20, 1967. Two pages, 4to, on Fu-Manchu’s pictorial letterhead, signed “Dave,” and stapled together with the original Air Mail envelope, expressing great interest in procuring a version of Virgil’s sawing illusion (“do I have to doff my hat to you… or who?”) as opposed to one like (Horace) Goldin’s, “the crudest thing imaginable,” and also referring to his then-unpublished autobiographical manuscript: “Yes, John Mulholland is a friend of many years. He is, at present, trying to get a publisher for my book but with no luck. No one seems to want the goddam thing and it took me two years to write it.” Mailing folds.
