Bless you for cont[inuing] to send the column. Please do. I will write from Spain. Love to Sylvia'. A few light, minor stains and age wear, about VG

Iago, a fictional character in William Shakespeare's Othello, is a Machiavellian schemer and manipulator and one of the playwright's most sinister villains.
