Title: Signature on a Card of F. Marion Crawford, Novelist and Author of Classic Weird and Fantastic Tales.
Description: Circa [1890]. [1890]. - An approximately 1-3/4 inch high by 3-1/2 inch wide cream-colored card is signed "F. Marion Crawford". There is some very minor soiling to the card. On the verso some unrelated ink writing is partially covered up by a glue-stained piece of paper & 2 pieces of tape where the card has been removed from an album. Good,
