Portrait of Cavafy
GR-OF CA CA-SF01-S04-F16-0017 (2029) · Item · n.d.
Part of CAVAFY, C. P. FONDS

Reproduction (perhaps serigraphy) of a portrait of Cavafy at a young age. The original sketch appears to have been made in Fine-tip pen and signed by its creator, Vasilis Photiadis ("V.P."). The poet is depicted in three-quarter view, looking slightly to the left. Blank verso. The portrait is placed inside a heavily oxidised bifolio marked "1923", handwritten by the poet. It was used as the frontispiece of the 1947 French edition of Cavafy's poems.

"Issue of 1910"
GR-OF CA CA-SF01-S01-F03-SF002-0002 (51) · Item · n.d.
Part of CAVAFY, C. P. FONDS

Handwritten list of the 1910 Issue distribution, comprising three parts: a small piece of paperboard with the title of the issue and two pieces of ruled paper initially folded in bifolios, with notes on all sides. Two columns in chronological order (1910-1915) with the names of individuals, next to which is the number of issues sent to each of them, as well as notes by Cavafy regarding the person who mediates for the acquisition of the issue or the person who is the final recipient. At the top of the list it is stated that the issue distribution started in April 1910; the phrase "1910 printout distribution" in the stead of a title. At the end of each column the total of issues distributed is noted, which is then carried forward to the top of the next one.
