With a two-page AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED with an ORIGINAL DRAWING by Ruskin to "My dear Barnes" dated 8 September 1878 tipped to the front endpaper. In full: I don't like to give Mr. Ellis trouble about so little a thing, and I daresay you will be good enough to find time to do it for me; -- I want the best accounts that have been given in the papers of a waterspout said to have destroyed a town in Hungary: and of the late steamboat catastrophe at Woolwich: --buy the back numbers of any paper that give details and a little account, for which I will at once remit you post order, -- and if you are faring any time soon through the Burlington [?] please buy from the nice old lady who keeps the [?] shop near your Bond St. end of it, three of her least terrestrial globes-- (about this size they are, I think -- for some infinitesimal price! on a tiny stand. [Ruskin includes a drawing of the globe here with the remark: "I drew too large at first."] and send me these down here at once. Always very heartily & gratefully yours JRuskin."
