Oh for the old days. A friend of mine sent me a letter he received from
Alfred Knopf, Jr. back in 1984. The note was an explanation of why a
particular book hadn't been reprinted. Typewritten and signed on Atheneum
letterhead. Hey, you think you could get a note like that directly from the
publisher himself these days? Good luck, Chief. For that matter, I was
reading that Charles Scribner III used to attend the ALA Annuals so he could
find out what librarians wanted to see on their shelves.
