Description

RKO Studios calls in Grant to begin Gunga Din

DS, one page, 6.25 x 10, April 22, 1938. Notice from RKO reads, in part: “Please be advised that we will require you to commence the rendition of your services…in connection with our motion picture entitled ‘Gunga Din’ on June 1, 1938. Accordingly, you will kindly report to our studio.” Signed at the bottom in fountain pen by Grant. In fine condition, with trimmed edges and two staple holes to top corners. It is reported that Grant actually switched roles with co-star Douglas Fairbanks Jr., so he could inject more humor into his performance. A great document with direct relation to Grant’s breakout role, which started him on a string of successful films. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
