DS, one page both sides, 8.5 x 11, Theater Guild letterhead, January 18, 1951. A document confirming arrangements for Taylor’s appearance in the radio version of Father of the Bride, sponsored by U.S. Steel Corporation, for which she will receive $2,500. In the previous year, Taylor starred in the acclaimed screen version, which earned an Academy Award nomination for “father” Spencer Tracy and which proved to be one of the greatest box-office successes of the season. At the time of signing, Taylor was still four months from her first marriage, to hotel heir Nicky Hilton, which set her on the path to becoming the most famously prolific bride in the annals of Hollywood. A few staple holes at left edge, otherwise fine, clean condition. A terrific and most uncommon association with one of the young star’s most beloved—and perhaps prescient—roles! R&R COA.
