MARX, Karl (1818-1883). Autograph letter signed ('K. Marx') to Collet Dobson Collet, 9 Grafton Terrace, Maitland Park, London, 27 July 1862, in English, one page, small 4to (laid down on paper, tear to upper left corner, general light soiling, more marked to right and lower margins).
MARX, Karl (1818-1883). Autograph letter signed ('K. Marx') to Collet Dobson Collet, 9 Grafton Terrace, Maitland Park, London, 27 July 1862, in English, one page, small 4to (laid down on paper, tear to upper left corner, general light soiling, more marked to right and lower margins). MARX VISITS PARLIAMENT. The letter is to request Collet's intercession with a member of parliament to procure him a ticket for the sitting of the House of Commons on the following Thursday, as a German friend who is visiting wishes Marx to accompany him: 'For my own part, I feel not the least desire of becoming personally acquainted with the "Low" House'. Marx's exigent visitor was Ferdinand Lassalle, about whom he was sending a barrage of complaints to Engels, not least that Jenny had been forced to pawn everything that was not bolted down in order to save appearances during his visit.
