One page, in red ink, on recto of one sheet of personal stationery. 1 vols. 10 x 7 inches. Fine, quick personal note from Steinbeck to his close friends, Meredith and Goddard. Just after his release from the hospital (after falling out of his window), and on the eve of his departure for a European tour, he writes:
" ... I got sprung from the hospital the day before yesterday a little wan and weak. I'll have to walk with a stick for some time but otherwise allright.
We kind of plan to go to France about the 15 - 20 of June. We'll be at Hotel Lancaster wherever that it - that is if we make it. So much can happen. Everything else seems to be going pretty well. We're going to have our troubles but I'11 tell you about that when I see you.
Love to you both ... John"
