TLS, very boldly signed “Walt Disney,” one page, 8.5 x 11, pictorial Walt Disney Productions letterhead, March 22, 1949. Disney writes to Mary Anne Harkins, a fan in Pittsburgh. In full: “I am deeply appreciative of your comment on ‘So Dear to My Heart’ which you so kindly sent me after the preview. I regret that I could not have been at this showing, but I am highly encouraged by the cards I received from so many who attended the preview. It is good to know that in the heart of America there is such a high appreciation of the kind of wholesome story Sterling North wove into ‘So Dear to My Heart’….” The film, which starred Bobby Driscoll as a boy who raises a “champion” black lamb, premiered in Chicago on November 29, 1948 and went into wide release in January of the following year. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Mailing fold passing through signature, otherwise very fine condition. A splendid example! PSA/DNA Auction LOA and R&R COA.
