	GOMEZ DE LA SERNA, Ramón. Holograph Working Manuscript of the Article "La Viuda Alegre." 1955. Thirteen 16cm x 23 cm pages. Working manuscript for the article "La Viuda Alegre" (pub. in Saber Vivir No. 111, january-march 1955). A sort of late review of Franz Lehar's opera The Merry Widow which is in reality an excuse to expound wittily on the role of widows from and anthropological and social stance. XIX century widows are radically different from their XX century counterparts. The ideal ones are, of course, the rich ones, just like the Lehar's, who became rich without having to marry a rich widow. In typical Gómez de la Serna fashion, the article hopscotches through numerous posibilities brought about by the subject with elegant humor and poignant commentary. Hand-numbered and signed by Gómez de la Serna, with multiple corrections and additions throughout, and a note on the upper left corner of the first page requesting galley proofs of the article.
