Correspondence from Gerald Yorke to Philip Kaplan
5, Montagu Square, W.1. Welbeck 6709.
17 July 58
Dear Kaplan.
Your 9 July. Yes, thanks for the French magazine. I wondered who had sent it. Please return the two items to me at the above address.
I do not recognize that part of Time a Dialogue which does not appear in Collected Works. Please let me have a copy. I am very interested in the miscellanea on the backs of poems. Please cop for me any diary entries that appear there.
There is quite an important dale of Crowleyana at Christies on July 25th, though none of the books are on vellum. All being the ordinary editions. I am interested in three items.
162. Al Comment—an unpublished typescript: I cannot tell until I have seen it, whether it is another version. I have three different ones.
166. A collection of manuscript fragments, eight leaves, consisting of magical diagrams and drawings.
169. Autograph diary from Nov 1914 - June 1915. I buy this regardless of cost.
The other items I might buy, depending on price are
168. Cordis Cincti Serpente, typescript with photograph of A.C. inserted and bound by Sangorski.
178. 9 pp MSS of Liber H.H.H.
183. Typescript of The Paris Working, but only if it is a variant of what I have.
190. MSS of 60 pages being part of The Temple of Solomon the King.
179 is a set of the three vols of the Holy Books [Volume I, Volume II, Volume III]. Do you want them?
Yours
Gerald Yorke
