DS, signed “Clark Gable,” one page both sides, 8.5 x 14, July 15, 1942. Western Union, as “a creditor of Carole Lombard, etc., deceased…presents its claim against the estate of said deceased, with the necessary vouchers, to Clark Gable as Executor of said estate,” in the amount of $14.13. Affixed to the lower portion of the document is a receipt for telegrams sent by Lombard. Gable approves the claim, signing on a reverse docketing panel. Light scattered toning, a few light creases, and expected filing and staple holes to the top, otherwise fine condition. Gable and Lombard were married for three years until her untimely death in a plane crash, a loss from which Gable never truly recovered. A rare and highly desirable document.
