TLS, two pages, 5.75 x 7.75, personal letterhead, March 17, 1954. In part: “Thank you for taking time to let me have your comments about Dragnet. The Los Angeles Police Department was and is most cooperative. The credit at the end of every one of our radio and TV programs (technical assistance from the office of W. H. Parker, Chief of Police) is true in every sense of the phrase. Spokesmen for the Los Angeles Police Department have been generous enough to say at various times that the program has helped public understanding of policemen’s problems. At no time, however, has the program been used as an official voice of the Department or any of its members.” In fine condition, with some diagonal strips of toning and slight mirroring of letterhead to first page. A superb example rich in Dragnet content, the show that earned widespread praise for improving the public perception of police officers. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
