Description

“Aside from being miffed at not having even so much as a ‘walk-on’ part (!!!), I would—we would—love to see you”

ALS signed “Doug F.,” one page on a 5.5 x 3.75 postcard depicting a sketch of a house, no date. Letter to George Cukor. In part: “Having been away from the shores for months & months, and then, soon after arrival, I whooshed back again—then back here—and now am just getting over jet-lag…Anyway, it wasn’t until a few days ago I realized you were working here. And aside from being miffed at not having even so much as a ‘walk-on’ part (!!!), I would—we would—love to see you again. I know how arduously you work & how little you’d normally want to dine out, but if you could, and would, we’d love to have you—very quietly, I promise (or, as I wrote Kate on the same subject, we could arrange the reverse if you’d prefer!).” In fine condition, with a light erased pencil notation to the top. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
