Mark Edwin Andrews, in part: "You may be sure that your interest in Mr. David Bress and your high estimate of his ability will be considered in the event additional Judgeships are created for the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia." In very good to fine condition, with three horizontal folds, and creases to the upper and lower blank areas.
Also includes a TLS by Warner Bros. founder Harry M. Warner, signed "H.M.," one page, 7 x 10.5, Warner Bros. Pictures letterhead, to David Bress, in part: "I have gotten in touch with several people and also have written to President Truman and Ambassador Davies, copies of letters of which I am enclosing. Further than this I do not know what more I can do, as much as I would love to be helpful. I suppose you read in the papers where the decision of the three judges in New York forces us to divide our theatres from our production. It has been a shock to me, and you can readily understand that after forty eight years of work to build a business to find it knocked out from under you in one day. But such is life and we are now living in a new world. We will have to make the best of it and do what we can." Includes carbon copies of Warner's letters to Truman and Davies, recommending Bress for the judgeship vacancy.
