Description : CARTER HOWARD: (1874-1939) English archaeologist and Egyptologist who discovered the Tomb of Tutankhamun in 1923. A.L.S., with his initials HC, one page, 8vo, Prince's Gate Court, London, 4th July 1931, to the Secretary of the National Art Collections Fund. Carter writes, in part, 'Would you be so kind as to give to bearer, my chauffeur, the two pieces of Egyptian sculpture', and identifying both, one being the 'head of Ramesses the Great'. Rare. One very small, minor tear and rust stain to the upper edge, otherwise VG Carter acted as a part-time dealer in Egyptian antiquities for both collectors and museums and the source of a number of items in his personal collection is shrouded in controversy. Over a dozen pieces he owned were identified after Carter's death as having been taken by the Egyptologist from Tutankhamun's tomb without authorisation.
