Very early ALS in pencil, signed “Julie,” one page both sides, 6.25 x 9.5, personal letterhead, postmarked June 16, 1938. Letter to Johnny Moreno, in full: "Well, N.Y. is very nice—I saw some plays and I'm beginning to get a little restless from lack of work. I'm going to a pre-view of 'Having Wonderful Time' on Tuesday—We're going away this week-end to the country—and if I don't have to come back July 4, I'm going away for a longer week-end near Maine. I couldn't get seats for the big fight so I'll have to listen to it over the radio. Tell Louis H. that the play I spoke to him about ('John Reed') was sold to charge Crawford a friend of mine. I spoke to the author about him playing the lead. I'm also going to see Miss Crawford about it too—the author knows Louis's work and likes it—so maybe it will work out. I think he's just right for the part. I miss tennis and am beginning to miss the hot California sun! Regards to Arthur and the gang." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Garfield's feature film debut occurred less than two months later with the release of the musical drama, Four Daughters. In his first role he received an Oscar nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
