Description

“I have about 30 fan letters to answer and about 90 pictures to autograph and that many envelopes to address”

TLS signed “Moe,” one page, 8.5 x 11, October 28, 1965. The lead Stooge responds to a fan. In part: “You are doing very nicely with your wax and seal, it looks real cute. I have already sent Larry some packages with gum and pictures, so you just keep yours…It is real wonderful of you to give so unselfishly to the Spastic Children. In about 2 weeks I go out and gather other toys, gifts of clothing for Spastic boys and girls for their Annual Christmas Party, which I do each year for them and have been doing so for the past 20 and more years…I believe the title of the Pilgrim Picture you were referring to was, Whoops I’m An Indian, I personally liked that one very much along with the civil war picture…Your idea of incorporating comic relief with historical events is a good one indeed, if the educational system would modernize themselves and put such things to work…Now I have about 30 fan letters to answer and about 90 pictures to autograph and that many envelopes to address.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds (a vertical fold touching the end of his name) and some wrinkling. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope addressed by Howard. Whoops I'm an Indian! was the 18th short subject starring the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959. A unique look into Moe’s charitable nature ... and tedium of his celebrity life. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
