Description

Work before pleasure: “I was very flattered that [the girls] chose me as one of the stars they would like to meet.... However ... I will be in Colorado on location with ‘To Hell and Back’”

TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, May 26, 1954. Murphy writes to Chet Sampson in Grosse Pointe. In part: “I received your letter telling me about the 38-day tour the girls of Grosse Pointe High School will make this summer. I was very flattered that they chose me as one of the stars they would like to meet when they visit Hollywood…. However, it looks very much as if I will be in Colorado on location with ‘To Hell and Back’ during both the periods you mention. Therefore, I am sure you can understand why I cannot make a definite commitment at this time.” Tiny tear and wrinkle to top edge, otherwise very fine, spotless condition. R&R COA.
