Lot 236 | Writing from Florida
KEROUAC, Jack (1922-1969). Typed postcard signed (“Dr. Jack”) to Ed White, postmarked Orlando, Florida, 4 April 1962.

"Gad, sir, out of my mind at last – The glooms of old Johnson are tinged with such joy and swich licor.”

Jack had received a letter from Bev Burford, but failed to keep the return address. He updates White on her news and bids him, “tell her write another note,” and offers this playful image: “Tell Bev Allan & Peter are in India walking around saying ‘Hmm’ ‘..wonder what that character’s doing with a camel in a Ford truck?’ ‘Who built the Taj Mahal? Ed White or Allan Temko?’
