24697ALS: 17 August 1944; 27 Oakington Manor Drive Wembley. TLS: 31 October 1962; 807 Howard House Dolphin Square London SW1. See her Guardian obituary by Ronald Bergan â€˜Britain's original â€œItâ€ girl who rose from shop assistant to movie starâ€™ 13 September 1999. Both items in good condition lightly aged and folded for postage. Both letters with good content. Eileen Margaret Cond 1911-1984 of Honiton was an enthusiastic autograph collector and she had an ability to draw a more than perfunctory response from her targets. ONE 1944 ALS: 2pp 8vo. Addressed to â€˜Dear Miss Condâ€™ and signed â€˜Chili Bouchierâ€™. Begins: â€˜Just a wee line to thank you so much for your nice Xmas card which was forwarded to me in Egypt. where she had been touring with ENSA / I am home now safe & sound and fortunately for me on tour with a new play â€œLady - Be Carefulâ€ so I can escape the flying bombs without feeling too guilty of running away from their horror.â€™ Having a â€˜week outâ€™ before playing Bath â€˜we decided to spend our week here and enjoy the antiquitiesâ€™. She â€˜thoroughly enjoyedâ€™ her â€˜trip out East and I think it was appreciated by the â€œboys.â€â€™ With reference to the war she feels things look â€˜grand all round nowâ€™. She hopes Cond is well and making her â€˜post-war plans. Itâ€™s fun to do although they may all go wrong - as all plans persistently do. At least that is my experience.â€™ TWO 1962 TLS. 1p 4to. Twenty-eight single-spaced lines. Addressed to â€˜My Dear Eileenâ€™ and signed â€˜Chiliâ€™. She has written a letter of protest against theatre closures to the Daily Express and â€˜Yes the Theatre Royal Portsmouth was one of the casualties I had in mindâ€™. I had another letter from someone from your district bewailing the apathy of the majority of people about the closing of the theatre.â€™ She doesnâ€™t feel very hopeful: â€˜There doesnâ€™t seem to be much one can do about it except wait for the time when people will be sick of staying at home and watching the â€œgoggle-boxâ€. But with new attractions like Telstar and colour TV it doesnâ€™t look as if that time will ever come.â€™ Her letter has â€˜brought a tremendous response from the publicâ€™ and she has been â€˜deeply moved to learn how many unknown friends I have.â€™ Despite the â€˜stunned silence at the audacity of an artist to raise a voice in protestâ€™ she will soon be working again. She makes a suggestion regarding those who wish to join her. She expresses the â€˜happiness and relaxationâ€™ she finds in Spain before turning to her autobiography: â€˜The book is now finished having re-written it once more and I just donâ€™t know which publisher to send it to as it is all a bit peculiar. It has to be as my life has been. Not at all like anyone elses.â€™ She is certain she will gain â€˜an inspirationâ€™ regarding the publisher â€˜and in the meantime I have high hopes of placing a musical with a Spanish background which I have also written during the quiet timesâ€™. Bouchier did not publish an autobiography until 1996 'Shooting Star'. The renewed interest resulted in an appearance on 'Desert Island Discs' and an episode of 'This is Your Life'. ALS: 17 August 1944; 27 Oakington Manor Drive, Wembley. TLS: 31 October 1962; 807 Howard House, Dolphin Square, London SW1. unknown
