Chaim Nachman Bialik, handwritten letter, addressed to Ya'akov Cohen. Odessa, [ca.1904].
A letter to the poet Ya'akov Cohen, regarding the publication of his poems in the monthly "HaShiloach", edited by Bialik. "Send good things for future issues. In 4 months the 100th issue of "HaShiloach" will be published, a special festive issue. The young ones in Geneva distanced their hands from "HaShiloach". They became arrogant – but why? The devil knows. Narrow mindedness and nonsense are dancing in the middle". Written on official stationery of "HaShiloach" magazine in Odessa. [1] leaf, 21X27.5 cm. Good condition. Folding-marks, stains, filing-holes, minor tears at margin.
