TLS signed 'Stan,' one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, May 9, 1957. In part: 'I deeply appreciate your kindness and trouble in giving me full details re the Chrysler New Yorker. There is certainly a big difference in the cost out here, they ask around 5200 plus tax and license. However, Mrs. Laurel feels that I shouldn't spend so much money. Due to my limited circumstances, she suggest I should get a cheaper car, such as a De Soto 'Firesweep.' She drove one and liked it. We are preparing to rent the house to move into an apartment - its too big for just two of us and a lot of unnessary [sic] work, so we are in the throes of selling furniture, etc. to save storing it all as the apt. will be already furnished. We expect to be moving to the Shangrila Apts. in Santa Monica, facing the Ocean, they have very nice suites there.' In fine condition, with scattered creasing and several horizontal and two vertical folds, none affecting the clean signature area. RRAuction COA.
