2 pp. ALS on Osler's letterhead mounted in a gold frame (18 x 11.25 in.), alongside an oval photograph portrait of a young Osler. Fine. [Details on request]. The piece is written on stationery bearing the typed heading "13. Norham Gardens, Oxford," Osler's home address from 1907 until his death. This stationery is his personal letterhead from that time. The letter reads: "Dear Fingland, You dear kind man! What a delightful New Year gift! The Fell + Radcliffe letters are specially valuable. R. [Radcliffe] seems t[o] have written very little. We have few letters of his here. I wish you would come and spend a weekend + browse about the Bodleian with me I have a few things too that would interest you. With best wishes for the New Year, Sincerely yours, Wm. Osler." References: Bibliotheca Osleriana 3393 & 3983; Cushing, Harvey, The Life of Sir William Osler, Vol. 2.
