TLS, one page, 7.25 x 11, personal letterhead, September 19, 1939. In a letter to Phil Spitalny, Berlin writes, in full: “Thoroughly enjoyed your programme the other night, I listened from my country home. The mountains around us make the reception a bit tough, but your hour came through swell. I liked your fine rendition of God Bless America, like everything else you have ever done, it was a lovely presentation.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, light blocks of toning, and some scattered light foxing. Berlin was most likely referencing the program, Phil Spitalny and his All Girl Orchestra, featuring Evelyn and her Magic Violin, which was a hit on CBS and NBC from 1934 through 1948.
