Superb illustrated letter by Grosz A superb illustrated letter by German artist George Grosz, undated but circa 1930s. The artist signs his name to the top of the page, then pens a marvellous watercolour self-portrait, showing himself covering his face, having forgotten the date; he further annotates, ?6, 6, 6, was it the 6? or the 16?? He then types a letter to his art dealer, Lene Cohn, in which he excoriates himself for forgetting his correspondent?s birthday. In part, ?I am just too late, I flopped again and I flunked it? you see my poor head was aching these last weeks and so I was mixed up and really didn?t know was it the 6 or the 16.? He goes on to send his best wishes, then notes, ?I have a little italian book about myself which I like to give you as a little friendly token?. He continues with some news, then ends, ?Well I don?t want to give you too many bad news. Let?s be cheerful, let?s have a little laugh once in a while, don?t you think?? He signed, ?George le professeur?. Grosz?s wife pens a letter of her own to the reverse. Letter folds, otherwise in generally fine condition. A wonderful item. Seller Inventory # 001218
