TLS signed "Groucho," one page, 8.5 x 11, June 17, 1948. Letter to author and screenwriter Sidney J. Perelman. In full: "I, like most others, regard myself as a very tough audience and, for some unknown reason, take great pride in it. This is a hell of a thing to be proud of, but frankly there isn't much else. Your piece in the last New Yorker, about the dame with the platinum hair, floored me and did as much for your friend Kurnitz. We spent most of last evening making the welkin ring for you. It's a shame that a man of your talent should have to accept miserly assignments from Ross. You, like any other great institution, should be endowed." In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
