Handwritten Letter from Patsy Cline. A charmingl
<B>Handwritten Letter from Patsy Cline.</B></I> A charmingly gracious handwritten letter from Country music superstar Patsy Cline, dated January 31, 1957 on 6" x 9" stationery of the Hotel Dixie in New York, thanking a fan in Wisconsin "for writing and saying such nice things abut me." The two-sided letter expresses Patsy's joy over her success ("I think I'm dreaming"), gives news about her upcoming engagements (including the Ozark Festival and <I>The Ed Sullivan Show</B></I>) and salutes her fan, "You sound like my kind of people." The closing and signature are great - 'Musically a true friend, Patsy Cline Winchester, Va." Patsy wrote this letter very shortly after her star-making appearance on <I>Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts</B></I>t, where she sang <I>Walkin' After Midnight.</B></I> Patsy Cline, whose most famous song, of course, remains Willie Nelson's <I>Crazy,</B></I> died in a plane crash in 1963, but over 40 years later is still considered one of the all-time biggest stars of Country music. The letter is in Excellent condition, and comes with its orignal Hotel Dixie envelope with $.03 stamp.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
