Description

“I learn your giving a wonderful birthday party for our mutual friend Bernard Gimbel—I’d love the details so I could put it in my column”

ALS, one page both sides, 5.5 x 6.75, The Waldorf Astoria letterhead, postmarked April 3. In a hasty request to world champion heavyweight boxer, Gene Tunney, Hopper writes, in full: “I learn your giving a wonderful birthday party for our mutual friend Bernard Gimbel—I’d love the details so I could put it in my column—Could you please send to 1708 Tropical Ave, Beverly Hills—Cal.” Scattered light creasing and some toning, a rusty paperclip at the left edge, and a staple mark at the bottom left corner, none of which affect the pristine signature, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by original mailing envelope, addressed in Hopper’s hand. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
