RUSKIN, John (1819-1900). Author, artist & social reformer. The final nine lines and signature from an Autograph Letter Signed, ½ page 8vo (cut down and laid on the remains of an album leaf), no place, no date. '[...] But alas, this trying to live by spinning brains instead of wool is the innermost curse of the day. If good women would but give the price they pay for this bad literature, directly in honest gift to the person who needs it without making her 'write for it' when she has, vitally - nothing to say. / Ever very faithfully Yours / J Ruskin' [No: 26393]
