Lawrence forwards his correspondent the Swedish agreement (no longer present) and enquires 'Have you made up a new agreement with Kippenberg, or aren't we signing one?'. The author further states 'Now Orioli is ill, and I hope it hasn't developed seriously - if it has I shall have to go to Florence' and concludes 'But don't worry, I'll see you get your copy of Lady C. - even if there is a bit of delay'. Autograph letters by Lawrence referring to one of his most famous, and controversial, works, Lady Chatterley's Lover, are rare and desirable. Very slightly irregularly cut to the upper edge and with some light, extremely minor age wear, VG Giuseppe 'Pino' Orioli (1884-1942) Florentine bookseller, best known for privately publishing the unexpurgated first edition of Lady Chatterley's Lover, of which around 1000 copies were released in July 1928.

('Friday', 28th October 1927), to Else von Richthofen, his sister-in-law ('My dear Else'). Lawrence writes of his current life and work in Italy, in part, '….here the sun is too hot, makes one tired & feels like earthquakes. Still it is beautiful. We got home safely with all the spoil…..we drank the Kirsch from the little yellow glasses when the Wilkinsons were here yesterday. I am much better, I eat more joyfully, & take the Brust-thee. Imagine, one must let it boil slowly for hours. I do believe it is good, better than all the medicines. I am already doing a story, and dabbing at my picture of five negresses - called The Finding of Moses……I had a letter from Curtis Brown, saying that next year, in November, our contract with Kippenberg comes to an end, & then we can leave him and go to a different publisher. Also that he, Kip-, said in a letter of 1923, that he would gladly agree that you should do the translations. Curtis Brown have the letter. Now I have written Kippenberg to ask him what exactly he intends to do next year, with regard to my work. We'll see if we can't have our own way in this matter, & you shall translate The Plumed Serpent if you wish…..' A couple of very light, extremely minor stains, VG Else von Richthofen (1874-1973) German Social Scientist, a cousin of Manfred von Richthofen. In 1922 Lawrence travelled in the United States of America and Mexico and wrote of his time on a small mountain ranch near Taos, New Mexico, in The Plumed Serpent (1926) and Mornings in Mexico (1927). He was forced to leave Mexico in October 1925, having come close to death when seriously ill with malaria, and settled near Florence.

Lawrence (D.H.).- Magnus (Maurice) Dregs: Experiences of an American in the Foreign Legion, original typescript, editorial manuscript revisions by D.H. Lawrence, modern morocco-backed box, 1920.
Est: £2,000 - £3,000
Lawrence (D.H., writer, 1885-1930).- Magnus (Maurice, American traveller and author, 1876-1920) Dregs: Experiences of an American in the Foreign Legion, original typescript, 2 titles and c. 225pp. including divisional titles, editorial manuscript revisions by D.H. Lawrence, browned, some edges creased, ink inscription of Magnus on titles "Written in October 1917 stolen and destroyed in parts by various censors during war Re-written from original notes July 1920", loose, leather book-label of Haven O'More, modern morocco-backed box, [cf. Roberts B14], folio, 1920. ⁂ One of a small number of typescripts known; this version with D.H. Lawrence's autograph corrections, but without Lawrence's celebrated Introduction to the work. Maurice Magnus, a one time manager of Isidora Duncan served in the French Foreign Legion in 1916-17 and wrote Dregs as an exposé of the cruel life of a legionnaire. Lawrence met Magnus in Florence in 1919, and after the latter's suicide in 1920, to escape arrest for debt, agreed to write an introductory memoir for the book. In the introduction Lawrence's frank and forthright criticism of Magnus's character aroused a hostile reaction from Norman Douglas, a fellow friend of Magnus.
