ALS signed “Tyrone,” two pages both sides, 5.25 x 7, personal letterhead, no date. Letter to Dr. John Parente at the Memorial Cancer Society. In part: “My life is hectic, as usual—productive, as usual—and relatively uncomplicated, as not unusual. The first three days of this week, I plunged back into work at the studio, cleaning up old bits on the picture (which by the way, looks pretty good)—then tomorrow morning I begin rehearsals again for ‘Devil’s Disciple.’ If I want a real thrill, I remind myself that we open a week from Monday!…Mary [Roblee, an editor] is in Rome—saw her on my way South. We had a long talk, and for once I was honest—laid all the cards on the table—and said au revoir. She was wonderful, understands perfectly, and wants the things out of life, & a man, that I am unprepared to give.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Powers’s hand. Scattered light toning, partial separation along one bisecting horizontal fold, and tape remnants to top of signed page, otherwise fine condition. RRAuction COA.
