ADMATTER IS PROUD TO OFFER FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION TODAY THIS ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN RESPONSE TO A PIECE OF FAN MAIL BY MISS KATHARINE HEPBURN. PLEASE CLICK ON +MORE (or More about this item) TO VIEW THE FULL DESCRIPTION
The response in her own hand is as follows: "Usual, Miss Hepburn cannot sign scripts sent to this address" She writes all of this in her hand with the "Hepburn" a version of her signature in last name format. The response was hand written on the front side of the original postmarked transmittal envelope. The Envelope was cut open but not torn it is in very good condition with some crinkles and light soiling. This item includes a full page Certificate of Authenticity from the original sale.
This is part of an extremely rare collection I will be listing in the months ahead. This collection was originally acquired by Bob Allen a well known celebrity autograph hound and collector. Mr. Allen collected discarded items from Katharine Hepburn's trash outside her Town House on 244 East 49th St. in New York City during a 4 year period from 1988-1992. There are also some pieces from her Connecticut Addresses. Upon request I will include a COPY of of a letter from Mr. Allen stating these facts. Miss Hepburn would hand write responses directly on her fan mail and her secretary who I believe was either Sharon Powers or Phyllis Wilbourn would then type them up on Miss Hepburn's stationary. Many of these letters show a an often bizarre side of Miss. Hepburn. You get an insight to a personal side of her that was not well known. The majority of the handwritten items are not signed because they were intended for only her secretary to see and document her responses. Miss Hepburn also destroyed many of the items by tearing them in half, as they were intended for the trash. These were later salvaged and some were taped back together. Here is you chance to acquire a one-of-a-kind collection of one of the most extensive personal finds from one of the biggest Hollywood legends of our time.
