Description

Garland preserves her films in the Library of Congress

DS, signed “Judy Garland, Pres,” three pages, 8.5 x 11, May 6, 1964. A motion picture agreement between Garland’s Kingsrow Enterprises and the Library of Congress for copies of unnamed motion pictures to be deposited into the Library. In part: “The undersigned Claimant expects to deposit in the Copyright Office, from time to time, copies of various motion pictures for the registration of its claims of copyright…it is hereby agreed that…the copies of each motion picture deposited by the Claimant will be released to the Claimant, subject to the terms of this agreement…” Nicely signed in black ink on the last page of the document by Garland, as president of Kingsrow Enterprises. In fine condition, with office stamp to lower right of first page and staple, trivial toning and a paperclip impression to bottom of signed page, and punch holes to top. An intriguing look at one of Hollywood’s biggest names taking steps to preserve her legacy. Ironically, after the cancellation of her television show in March of 1964, Garland moved to London and never appeared in a motion picture again. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
