2 baden powell 1923 imageRobert Baden-Powell, signed manuscript letter, on "Pax Hill/Bentley/Hampshire" letterhead, addressed (apparently) to a fishery manager asking if he is "likely to have any 2 yr. old trout to dispose of this spring (or grayling)…(for replenishing stock in the weir at this place)"; forwarded, as below Baden-Powell's signature the manager is asking "Chris", "have we got any to spare"; fame clearly held no sway over the manager, who continues, "I'd like to push off some rainbows on him, but doubt if he'd take them"; normal letter folds and a slight bit of foxing, but a great item nonetheless, ex Fukui.
