Desirable twice-signed DS, four pages, 8 x 10.75, May 1, 1953. Statement of financial condition of Welles, which lists his employment as “Independent film producer, actor, author, director,” listing his costs at $50,800, and his accounts payable as $138,460, and listing his assets on the following page. The final line asks for a statement regarding an increase in his income, to which Welles’s typed response reads: “As a motion picture producer I am seeking financial backing for future production but thus far I have not succeeded. There is always the possibility that I will make satisfactory arrangements but it is impossible to make accurate predictions in this respect.” Final two pages are Welles’s finances, as well as two court judgements involving Welles. Signed on the second and fourth page by Welles. In fine condition, with expected document wear. Document retains half of its red wax seal and its original ribbon.
