Description

On Swiss Miss, the Roach Studios, and Charlie Chaplin

TLS, 5.5 x 3.25, government postcard letterhead, October 9, 1962. Laurel writes to fan Tim Dalton in Mansfield, Ohio. In part: “The height of the bridge in ‘Swiss Miss’ film was around 45 foot, but the special camera knowledge gave the effect of being much higher. The Roach studio is [sic] been auctioned off at the end of this month, don’t know if it will still operate as a film studio. Yes Chas. Chaplin is still living, resides in Switzerland. I have no idea if the L & H animated cartoons will be released on 8mm size or not, I would doubt it however....” Small, faint corner creases, otherwise fine condition. R&R COA.
