Condición: Good. Good. - A 1-1/2 inch high by 4-3/4 inch wide piece of paper clipped from the bottom of a letter, with the words "Sincerely yours" typed in closing signed by Rex Beach in black ink. The once folded paper has been mounted onto heavier black stock, likely clipped from an album. Good. The American novelist, playwright and Olympic water polo player Rex Beach (1877-1949) studied law before moving to Alaska at the time of the Klondike Gold Rush. He turned to writing after he was unsuccessful as a prospector basing his stories on his experiences as a prospector. His novel "The Spoilers" was based on his experience with corrupt government officials stealing gold mines from prospectors. Beach's works were inspired by Jack London and, though popular in their day, were also criticized as being simply tales of "strong hairy men doing strong hairy deeds".
