TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, March 19, 1979. Letter to horror producer Samuel Z. Arkoff. In full: “Just a note to express my thanks for the tribute from American International in the souvenir program at the American Film Institute’s Lifetime Achievement Award dinner. It was thoughtful and I am most appreciative.” Light ring of dampstaining to left side, otherwise fine condition; the signature is exceptionally bold and unaffected. The AFI Lifetime Achievement Award is given to just one person per year, and Hitchcock received his on March 7, 1979; Arkoff was an executive of the horror film production company American International Pictures, which Hitchcock mentions in the letter.
