Nostalgic ALS signed “Paul,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.75 x 7, Hotel Excelsior letterhead, August 20, 1932. Getty writes to his “Dearest Mama,” in full: “Just a line to let yo know I am thinking about you. I have been in Italy about a week, visiting Como, Milan, Genoa, now I am in Viareggio. Papa and you and I passed through Viareggio in 1927 on our way between Naples and Paris. The beach here is wonderful and I am enjoying the swimming & sailing very much. After a few days here I expect to motor to Naples and then go by boat to Merseilles & then drive to Paris. I expect to leave for home about the end of September. I would like to be in New York about Oct. 1st. I miss you very much and often think of the lovely trip in Italy we had in 1927.” In fine condition, with scattered light surface creasing. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Getty’s hand.
