Autograph Letter Signed "A. Fores" to George Cruikshank, caricaturist.

Partner in Fores & Co., publishers and print sellers, who published some of Cruikshank's work and presumably sold it. He therefore had a vested interest in dealing with the problem he outlines to Cruikshank. Letter, two pages, 4to, in a clear envelope laid down on card (as a display) , some soiling and damage, but text clear and complete as follows: "I have to inform you there is a Little Dark Man whose name is Wince going about to all the Hotels & Noblemen's Houses and represents himself as you //Mr George Cruikshank\\ I think it my duty to let you know this as it is very likely to injure you & the sale of your works - generally. If you think proper to give me a Call I can inform you of all the Particulars."
