TLS signed “Irving,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, April 2, 1976. Letter to playwright and lyricist Leonard Gershe. In part: “Here is your painting and a reproduction of it. Also, two reproductions of other paintings I did. ‘Heaven—I’m in heaven,’ I sent to Fred Astaire. I can’t really explain how I happened to paint that rather attractive head of an Arab. I guess it’s just another instance where I demonstrate that as a painter—I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original envelope. A great association between the composer and lyricist. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
