A fabulous and unique autograph questionnaire page, 7.5 x 5, completely filled out in fountain pen by Hepburn. At the top she writes her full name, “Katharine Houghton Hepburn, February 13th, 1945,” adding a self-portrait caricature in the upper right corner. Underneath she adds her street address, date of birth and birthplace. She lists her likes “eating,” and dislikes “not eating,” and answers four other questions: Favorite Pastime “Tennis in spite of my game”; Favorite Boy’s Name “Thomas”; Favorite Movie Star “Spencer Tracy”; and Life’s Ambition “To be a tennis champion who retired unbeaten.” Eddie Duchin has filled out the reverse of the page, with his life’s ambition to be a “Champion Slot machine player.” In fine condition. An insightful and candid offering from the usually private Hepburn, who at this time was dedicating much of her time to Tracy and his personal issues.
