Ifyde Park, Massachusetts April 27, 1950 Mr. Bob Elliot 9 Manley Street Augusta, Maine Dear Mr, Elliot: Your new book EASTERN BROOK TROUT is a popular addition to our library, and its beautiful format and authoritative information indicate an enduring interest and demand for it. We are very glad indeed to have such a book available, and congratulate you upon its publication. Any new Maine book instantly brings to mind the Maine Author Collection, which perhaps is already known to you. Briefly, it is an exhibit collection of books by Maine people or about Maine, comprised of inscribed presentation copies, and constituting an impressive and fascinating testimony to the proud place of Maine in literature. The exhibit constantly attracts Maine visitors and students, steadily increases, and is, of course, of lasting worth. The inclusion of an inscribed copy of EASTERN BROOK TROUT would be a happy one, and we hope that you will want to see a copy of the shelves. You have our very good wishes for its success, and for the further volumes which we hope may be expected from your pen. Sincerely yours In Charge of hmj Maine Author Collection Mr. Elliot presented the book in person, and was personally thanked by hmj.
