Nabokovia In reply to 0000300476D2

[BICKMAN MARTIN]

Don't have anything that would hold up in court, but I do remember 
reading that although Nabokov himself didn't remember TRP, his wife Vera, 
who graded the papers for the class, did remember the name and the 
handwriting, which she recalled as very ordered and neat.  I've never 
seen TRP's handwriting so I don't know if this fits or not, nor do I know 
if he handed in papers typed or handwritten.  Anybody out there know?
