TLS signed “Janie,” one page, 8.5 x 11, Wyman’s Warner Bros. letterhead, January 22, 1945. Letter to Billy Wilder. In part: “I do so want to thank you for running Lost Weekend for me, I was thrilled to pieces to see it. Think it is wonderful, and proves what I have always known—that you are tops as director. Milland, of course, is out of this world in it. I’d like to lay you—ten to one—that it’s going to be a smash hit.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds and mild toning to upper portion of page. Obviously Wyman pegged the film right on the head, as The Lost Weekend would be nominated for seven Academy Awards, winning four including Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Actor.
