About Fine
Description
Westport, CT, 5 January 1945. Letter. About Fine. One page on 7-1/4" x 10-1/4" personal stationery SIGNED "Frank" to Walter. In full: "Eugene Field died in 1895 or 1896 -- more than thirty years ago. But Taylor left, I'm sure, plenty dough, and I think Ring [Lardner] did, too. You're on about me, as I never made enough to say no. Confidensh (?) about me 4 well-dressed children, only one at the expense of the army. Frank." With postscript: "The Field stuff only is usable. Love to you, + I don't write you often enough." Adams's column, "The Conning Tower," in the NEW-YORK TRIBUNE helped launch the careers of Dorothy Parker and James Thurber. Parker, who quipped, “He raised me from a couplet,” dedicated her 1936 publication of collected poems, NOT SO DEEP AS A WELL, to F.P.A. His best-known work is the poem "Baseball's Sad Lexicon," a tribute to the Chicago Cubs' double-play combination of Tinker to Evers to Chance.
