Description

The impresario mentions his Cantor classic

TLS signed “F. Ziegfeld,” one page, 6.25 x 7, personal letterhead, January 7, 1924. Letter to the father of an aspiring actor. In part: “I have been so busy with the production of Kid Boots that I have not had the opportunity to write…I have nothing to offer your son at this time. He might come in to see me in March, when there may be another production to be made.” A small tear to the left edge and punch hole to the top, otherwise fine condition. Kid Boots was a stage musical produced by Ziegfeld starring Eddie Cantor and Mary Eaton, with George Olsen and his orchestra, which opened on Broadway on December 31, 1923. Paramount released a film version in 1926, featuring Cantor, Clara Bow, and Billie Dove in the lead roles. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
