(Dunmow: , Sept. 8, 1920).

A FINE ONE PAGE AUTOGRAPH LETTER WITH A BOLD SIGNATURE IN THE HAND OF H.G. WELLS, one of the greatest masters of science fiction and most popular turn-of-the-century authors.
In the letter Wells excuses himself from participation in a review as his time is fully occupied, he then expresses a desire to hear from the recipient as the “scheme develops”. His signature, “Very Sincerely H. G. Wells” is bold and flourished.
Though best remembered for his classic science fiction novels such as THE TIME MACHINE, Well’s was a truly multifaceted writer. He wrote additionally humorous novels of modern morals that were extremely popular in their time. He also wrote serious scientific reviews and sociological and historical papers that remain highly regarded. He was a noted early male supporter of feminism as an advocate for birth control at a time few men were willing to discuss it and he believed women should be allowed to achieve anything they wished, and he believed that they were capable of doing so.
