Description

"Having babies is definitely for the younger set—this pregnancy may be the end of me"

ALS signed “Grace,” one page both sides, 6 x 7.5, Palais de Monaco letterhead, November 23, 1964. Letter to Charles Fish, Jr., in part: "Now about that birthday card!! I don't know whether to be glad or not that you remembered my birthday!—How did we get so old so suddenly? I feel like Helen Treut—whose life & romances were told to panting housewives & school children home with measles & the like—on the radio. The program answered the question—'Can a woman find love & romance at thirty five & even beyond?' I do not know about the love & romance but having babies is definitely for the younger set—this pregnancy may be the end of me—It has not been easy & then the children are driving me to drink with their questions—they are so excited that Feb cannot come soon enough for any of us—Hope all is well with you." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope addressed in Kelly's hand. Princess Grace and Prince Rainier welcomed their youngest child, Princess Stephanie of Monaco, into the world on February 1, 1965. A desirable letter from the ever-elegant actress-turned-princess.
