A SIGNED HART CRANE BROOKLYN BRIDGE POSTCARD TO EDWARD DAHLBERG. CRANE, HART. 1899-1932. Postcard Signed ('Hart Crane') featuring the Brooklyn Bridge, to Edward Dahlberg, 1 p (verso only, with color-tinted photograph of the Brooklyn Bridge on recto), New York, postmarked September 6, 1929, light soiling and handling wear, in double-glazed frame. Dahlberg and Crane had met in Paris in 1928, when Dahlberg's Bottom Dogs was published. Crane had given him the working manuscript for The Bridge, which in early 1929 Harry and Caresse Crosby had agreed to publish, and steadily encouraged Crane to finish the epic poem, helping him take an apartment in Brooklyn overlooking the Brooklyn Bridge. Of the apartment, Dahlberg would recall, 'There was always a gallon of whiskey and a pile of Sophie Tucker records near his bed.' On a postcard of Crane's beloved bridge, he here responds to encouraging news from Dahlberg at Yaddo, and closes, 'When you get back to this broiling Babylon look me up again.' Lot to be sold without reserve. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
