Description

ALS signed “Merle,” four pages on two sheets, 4.5 x 7, Great Westwood, King's Langley letterhead, no date. Letter to director George Cukor, in part: "I'm enchanted to be back in London—though this June weather is a bit trying. I'm here at Eric Dudley's for ascot week, very hectic, but great fun. Darling, this is what I'm writing to you about—you remember my dog 'Beau'—the Portuguese water dog—? You admired him very much—he looks like a lamb. Well now Frances is here with us & he has been living with my seamstress & he has been so happy because they have given him lots of love—now she is coming to Europe & I hate to put him in a kennel, because he is a very funny fellow, if he is not given a lot of love & attention he gets very bad-tempered…I wondered if you could help me find a home for Beau—with someone who would really love him." In fine condition.
