Description |
Studio portrait of Robert Louis Stevenson. Taken at The Falk Studios in Sydney, Australia, in March 1893. Originally framed with another photo (taken in Boston, Mass. in 1888 by the James Notman Studio) and an autographed note signed by Robert Louis Stevenson. The ANS is a blank portion of a printer's galley on which the following appears in Stevenson's hand in ink: "To the Reader (underscored twice). If I receive another proof of this sort, I shall return it at once with the general direction 'See MS." I must supose my system of punctuation to be very bad, but it is mine, and shall be adhered to with punctual exactness by any created (?) printer who shall print for me. Robert Louis Stevenson." |
