THREE PAGE TYPED LETTER DATED 9/12/1982 with hand corrections and cross outs to actress Margaret Hamilton reminiscing about Ms. Hamilton's birthday, the delightful gift she received from her, the wonderful time she and her husband, John, had when taken backstage to meet the cast of ANOTHER LANGUAGE (Ms. Hamilton's first professional play), that she, Ms. Hamilton, was so good and thus was the only person from the original stage play that was cast in the film with Robert Montgomery and Helen Hayes, the enchanting dinner she hosted for her and her husband when she, Ms. Hamilton, lived in Columbia heights where they could see The Statue of Liberty from the balcony, meeting a man from The Boys Club who fascinated her, learning that the benefactor of The Boys Club was none other than Mrs. E. H. Harriman, the time Greta Garbo came to see her (Florence La Gatta's) home and more. All in all, a nice chatty letter consisting of good memories.
