22067On her letterhead Sherman Oaks California. 28 February 2005. 3pp 4to. In good condition lightly aged. A long and entertaining letter beginning: 'Dear Mr. Fry Probably late in 1949 in a New York City duplex living room two married couples lay prone on the floor fanned out around a single copy of “The Lady's Not for Burning†the better to read aloud all its colorful roles. The couples were Alfred Drake with whom I had played the previous season in my first Broadway play his wife my writer husband i.e. Robert Presnell Jr and I. Alfred had just come across “The Lady†and had to share his discovery with us.' The reading gave her 'a lifetime favorite play'. She describes how she had to 'miss playing in “A Phoenix too Frequent†being hard at work then in G. B. Shaw's “The Devil's Disciple†at the Royale Theatre'. The 'floor-reading foursome' attended a performance of 'The Lady' by the British cast at the same theatre 'and were spellbound. I especially recall the mellow beauty of Pamela Brown's voice and noting well the actor playing Richard the copying clerk also a Richard last name Burton.' She describes a production she was in with Vincent Price 'first at Southern California's La Jolla Playhouse then at San Francisco's Alcazar Theatre': 'Audiences trooped backstage to thank us for the feast of language they had enjoyed – a rare attention to text. Loving the play we all longed to take it on tour but previous commitments forbade and so the magic spell we'd been under was broken. But Vinnie Price and I did have one more go at it a few years later when his hometown St. Louis Missouri showed that middle-America could relish Christopher Fry just as much as did our east and west coasts.' She contrasts how Fry's words 'fly upward like the sparkling drops of an exuberant fountain' with how T. S. Eliot's speeches 'in the simplest barest of words could leave the listener baffled as to what it was he was saying. I even had trouble learning those lines.' She ends by explaining that 'That very nice fellow-actor Ted Donaldson encouraged me to tell you what joy your writing has brought me – and so many others in these distant outposts. Your unique gifts have enriched all who have come across them. Thank you oh thank you for sharing them with us.' On her letterhead, Sherman Oaks, California. 28 February 2005. unknown

238946 August 1946; on letterhead of the Savoy Hotel London. 2pp 12mo. Twenty-one lines of text. In good condition lightly aged. Signed ‘Lilian Gish’. Begins: ‘Dear Miss Murchison I was so touched by your very sweet letter which was handed to me by the BBC just before we went on the air. / It is heartwarming to come back to England after these long and dreadful years and find that our film friends have not forgotten us. We for our part are full of admiration for the courage and uncomplaining patience of your brave people.’ The ‘brief glimpse of England’s battered cities’ has left her party with ‘unforgettable memories’ and they hope to return for a longer visit ‘when the present travel restrictions are relaxed’. The ‘regulations governing air travel’ prevented them from bringing any photographs so she asks her ‘to take the word for the deed and accept our kindest regards and best wishes’. 6 August 1946; on letterhead of the Savoy Hotel, London. unknown

17960Both on his letterhead 11 Apple Tree Yard. 23 August and 24 November 1949. Both items in good condition lightly-aged. ONE: 2pp. 4to. Having returned from 'a rather long painting expedition to France' he finds that 'circumstances have arisen in regard to the administration of the Society' the Society of British Film Art Directors and Designers of which Craig was a leading light and in the light of these circumstances Irving feels compelled to resign. 'It is . unlikely that I shall design any more films. Life is short and there is so much to be done that even if anybody wished me to I should hesitate to commit myself to the months not only of work but of preoccupation which a film production involves. Quite apart from this I feel that the principles of film design which however wrongly I have always advocated are being abandoned naturally in the face of economic pressure and the general registration of film making. I am old fashioned enough to believe that the situation into which films have fallen is very largely due to the insistance sic of those who have misguidedly and not very successfully tried to make it into an industry rather than a medium of expression for groups of artists of enterprise and imagination.' Two more paragraphs follow before the letter ends. TWO: 1p. 4to. Following the last letter Irving has been offered honorary membership of the Society and writes: 'I do not feel that I deserve such consideration for you and several others have striven hard to maintain the prestige of Art Directors in the gruelling factory conditions of commercial studios through good and bad times. However as you well know to an artist the only commendation or criticism which really touches him is that of his fellow craftsmen .'. He offers his assistance to the Society before ending: 'I heard from Flower that your meeting in London was a success and that you are going to get out drawings and plans for the proposed Elizabethan theatre. I am very glad to hear this and I know you will find the Stratford people charming to deal with.' Both on his letterhead, 11 Apple Tree Yard. 23 August and 24 November 1949. unknown

198094817Dallas TX: July 24 1980. 1980. Very good. - One-and-a half page letter typed on one side of a cream-colored 11 inch high by 9-12 inch wide sheet of Management West letterhead with Jurow listed as president at top left and on a follow-up sheet. Signed "Affectionately / Martin Jurow". There is some light creasing to the left edges of the sheets with a light paper-clip mark to their top edges. An ink notation at top right of the first sheet indicates the date when the letter was answered. Folded twice for mailing. Very good. <p>Jurow writes to Madeline Sherwood widow of playwright Robert E. Sherwood on behalf of two talented men who have gone ahead and prepared a book and many songs for a musical of "Waterloo Bridge". They have tried in vain to reach Madeleine Sherwood to ask for permission to develop the play as a musical. "They kept very much to the poignant and romantic concept of your Robert's work. My reaction to the men to their dedication and their ability was such that I vowed to write to you to intercede for these gifted people. I would go further and say that I would personally be ready to negotiate for the right to produce the musical. First in London and then wherever its success may lead." Sherwood's play premiered on Broadway in 1930. Apparently the musical version discussed here never came to fruition.<p>Martin Jurow 1911-2004 was a Hollywood producer known for "Breakfast at Tiffany's" "Terms of Endearment" and "The Pink Panther" among other films.
