ALS in pencil signed “Laurette,” written at the bottom of a TLS to Taylor, one page, 8.5 x 11, Selznick International Pictures letterhead, May 14, 1938. A letter from Katharine Brown to Laurette Taylor telling her that she would not receive a part in Gone With the Wind. Letter to Taylor reads, in full: “Mr. Selznick asked me to thank you very much for your cooperation in the making of the test and to tell you that it is with deep regret that we do not think you are the right type for the part.” Taylor forwarded the letter to director George Cukor, and at the bottom Taylor writes, in full: “Dear George—This is the letter I meant to enclose in the letter I mailed three hours ago! Laurette.” Intersecting folds, scattered light creasing, staple holes to the upper left, and a stray pencil mark to the top, otherwise fine condition.
