TLS, two pages, 6.75 x 6.75, personal letterhead, March 19, 1956. Letter to Ralph C. Glock, in part: "I have been wanting to write to you for some time to extend my sincerest thanks to you and the Society for the scroll and lovely gift that you presented to me. I am deeply grateful and feel very much honored. Bing Crosby is going to Europe this Spring and does not expect to return before June 1st. However, if there is any chance of his returning before that date, he will be in touch with you, but I think it very unlikely. I discussed the matter of the film short with Prince Rainier. Plans had been made in Monaco for the filming and distribution for such a short. There is no way that I can secure exclusive rights for Multiple Sclerosis. However, in discussing this with the Prince, it was decided that a substantial donation could be made from the proceeds of this film." In fine condition, with a paperclip impression to the upper left corner of each page.
Ralph C. Glock was president of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and visited the set of High Society in 1956 to present Kelly with an illuminated scroll for her work with the charitable organization.
