Heartwarming TLS signed “Cary,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, Faberge letterhead, January 12, 1971. Grant writes to Beebe, in full: “That little angel for my little angel was a smash. I don’t mean smashed; because Jennifer treats it reverently. Whoever is the designer of such a charming lamp must be a kind and thoughtful person. And so are you. Thank you, dear Beebe, not only for my child who so genuinely enjoys her fascinating present but also, for me, who enjoys watching her fascination. It’s an unusually attractive yet practical gift and no one of the many things that Jennifer received at Christmas seems to please her more. It gives just as warm and tender a glow as I feel for you, my friend,” afterward adding, “When Jennifer is s-lightly older…MUCH older…and I help her replace the light bulb, I can sing her the well-know ditty: See the little angel ascend up/Ascend up/Oh, see the little angel ascend up on high/Which end up/As-cend up/Which end, wtc. Ah, levity. C.” In fine condition, with a central vertical crease lightly affecting the signature and a rough bottom edge. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
