THACKERAY WILLIAM MAKEPEACE: (1811-1863) British novelist of Vanity Fair (1848). A brief, charming A.L.S., W M Thackeray, one page, 8vo, n.p., n.d. ('Monday'), to 'My dear Senior'. The novelist writes, in full, 'I am yours for tomorrow - only please look to see that I don't eat and drink too much of the good things'. Attractively matted in black and cream alongside an antique engraving of the novelist seated in a three-quarter length pose and holding a pen in one hand. Framed and glazed to an overall size of 16 x 10.5. Some light, minor creasing, a small area of paper loss to the upper left corner and one minor tape stain to the left edge, not affecting the text or signature. About VG Biographers have described Thackeray as 'a genial and modest man, fond of good food and wine'.
