JELLIFFE, SMITH ELY. (1866-1945). AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIST. AN EARLY ADVOCATE OF FREUD WHO PUBLISHED TRANSLATIONS OF FRUED, JUNG AND ADLER. Autograph Note Signed. Addressed to Psychiatrist Arthur N . Foxe.
Huletts Landing, NY: Oct 4 - 1937. - 31 words penned in blue ink on a 3-1/4" x 5-1/2" postcard. In the top left corner of the message side of the card is a 1-1/4 x 3-1/4 printed photographic illustration depicting a tree-shaded house on a lake with 2 small children in the water. The date is stamped in the top right corner. Signed "Jelliffe". A hole is punched through the illustration on the left side of the card. On the verso, the card is addressed to Athur Foxe at Great Meadow Prison, NY, and postmarked, with Jelliffe's return address stamped down the left side of the card. Very good. Jelliffe writes to Foxe to thank him for sending him two books. He says that he has returned a third book and suggests that Foxe should think about reviewing all three "for the Journal" [probably the Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease which Jelliffe owned and edited for forty years from about 1902]. The postcard appears to be personalized with a picture of Jelliffe's house in Huletts Landing in Washington County, N.Y.Jelliffe was a neurologist, psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who practiced in New York. He produced numerous translations of European works on psychopathology, neurology, psychiatry and psychotherapy. As co-founder and editor of the "Nervous and Mental Disease Monograph Series" he published some of the earliest translations of Freud, Jung and Adler.Uncommon.
