One of the coolest, insider, back-stabbing, Hollywood Film Industry, letters that I have ever seen!
Creasing and toning, primarily to the margins, two horizontal folds where the letter was probably folded to fit into an envelope (no envelope present), overall still GOOD condition, certainly suitable for framing!
