Charmian London letters and manuscripts
Manuscripts
This material includes letters and manuscripts by Charmian London. Nine of the letters (1910-1926) are written to Margaret Smith Cobb, a California author, poet, and artist, and friend of both Charmian and Jack London. The letters concern family matters, lace making, their mutual writing projects, and health issues; the letters also mention Jack London, George Sterling, and Harry Houdini. There is one letter (Oct. 7, 1911) from Charmian to Elizabeth Maddern London ("Bessie"), Jack London's first wife. Also included are two typewritten carbon copies of a newspaper article ([approx. 1916]) Charmian wrote about British women during World War I; galley proofs ([approx. 1916]) of an article by Jack London, corrected by Charmian; and one empty envelope (June 26, 1917). All the material is in good condition, with some slight damage from normal use.
