Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Martin Birnbaum
Dec. 21, 1914
The Wolcott 4 West 31st Street New York
My Dear Birnbaum:
Magnificent surprise, the lithographs.[1] Really a success that beggars talk. The moment I am free—and I am moving to 40 West 36th Street tomorrow—I shall come around and weep upon your exquisitely chiselled neck, in the presence of 216 reporters, all sobbing in sympathy.
Toujours,
Aleister Crowley
