GRENFELL
(Joyce, 1910-1979, Comedy Actress)
Autograph Letter Signed to Miss Kit Stewart
on an Air Letter form, saying that she hasn’t “written to say how touched & pleased I was by that lovely first night cable. I loved getting it... It was a wonderful 8 weeks. Smashing notices, audience’s warmth & kindness. Now for some TV and then home in the New Year. I don’t quite know when. It’s been a lovely experience & has made me understand & love America far more. I used to be faintly resentful in some ways even though I am ½v½. But there is such a sense of loving kindness & real neighbourliness & love here that I’m won over. We only see the tough materialistic touristy side - that exists too,, so does Smash Broadway, cigars, guns & toughness. But these are surface stuff like Edgware Road. The core is good...”, 1 side folio, with autograph address on the verso, Lamelton Hotel, West 55 St, New York City, postmarked 3rd December
