I like the first one a lot. He could have used an editor (and a typist), but everyone's a critic, right? That letter probably captures more of his personality than all his photographs put together.

I especially like the one where he's writing to Brett Weston's in-laws about his Weston-style approach to marriage.

Ansel included the small image wrapped in cardboard with the letter to Weston's in-laws. It's not an original photographic print, unfortunately, but it's pretty neat.

Oh how nice one of these would look on the wall by my Hasselblad letter! I have a nice letter from Victor on his letterhead/stationary like these of Ansel. Super neat pieces of history!
