Description

“In ‘The Bishop’s Son’ I have a part which I find impossible to do anything with … I know I shall fail miserably”

English actor (1877-1962) who appeared in over 100 films, including Gaslight, Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, Platinum Blonde, and Here Comes Mr. Jordan. ALS, two pages, 4.5 x 7, Green Room Club letterhead, no date. Letter to an admirer. In part: “I was rather afraid & nervous at first about tackling the part of the ‘Pope’ as I realized it must be handled in a delicate way as to not to give too much offense to those who thought ‘His Holiness’ should not be brought upon the stage…In ‘The Bishop’s Son’ I have a part which I find impossible to do anything with. It does not interest me a little bit & I know I shall fail miserably.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
