Humorous TLS signed “George,” one onionskin page, 8.5 x 11, February 8, 1951. Letter to Spencer Tracy. In part: “I have taken it upon myself to send you the plans of the Tracy residence in the new Cukor Development (otherwise known as ‘THE-LAST-STOP-BEFORE-THE-MOTION-PICTURE-RELIEF-HOME’). To satisfy a certain Touring Actress, we are draining the malarial swamps on which the residence is to be erected. She will be pleased to know that the sun hits this property regularly once a week and that the smog condition that has made this land uninhabitable for years is gradually being corrected. The Hollywood Freeway does pass directly over the site, but the concrete mixers and riveters will be finished in about three short years.” In fine condition, with mild edge toning. Cukor’s mention of the “Touring Actress” doubtlessly refers to Katharine Hepburn, Tracy’s partner.
