Description

“I wasn’t too impressed incidentally—the color looked very good indeed, but that doesn’t produce laughs!”

TLS signed “Stan,” two pages, 5.25 x 8.5, Oceana Apartment Hotel letterhead, August 21, 1962. Letter to Dick Sloan. In part, “Note your comments on the L & H comic book—frankly I haven’t paid much attention to the story material or characterization of L&H in general. I don’t know whether Harmon is responsible for the material & drawings in these books or not am under the impression this work is done by the Dell publishing Co’s staff…Of course have no idea what the situation is concerning the cartoon series, as far as I know they are in full production & are to be syndicated in the fall—what they are like I haven’t the slightest idea—haven’t seen any of the film, except a short piece of a Test, I wasn’t too impressed incidentally—the color looked very good indeed, but that doesn’t produce laughs!” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
