DS, two pages both sides, 8.5 x 11, November 20, 1947. Standard AFRA exclusive agency contract between Garland and Phil Berg-Bert Allenberg Inc., for a period of three years. Signed on the final page in fountain pen by Garland. Punch holes to top edge, scattered light toning and soiling, a couple pencil notations on first page, and a few wrinkles, otherwise fine condition. This contract was drawn mere months after Garland’s first suicide attempt. Only eight months later, her relationship with Berg-Bert Allenberg came to a screeching halt after she was unable to complete the filming of Barkleys of Broadway. She would make her triumphant return in the aptly-titled 1954 hit, A Star Is Born. This document represents Berg-Bert Allenberg’s last effort to retain their beloved, tumbling star.
