Nice collection of signatures from Clark Gable, Deborah Kerr and Moe Howard. Items include: (1) Clark Gable typed letter signed, dated 14 August 1944 and addressed to Mr. Robert Rubin, Vice-President of Loew's. Reads in full: ''I am enclosing five copies of 'Supplemental Agreement' and five copies of supplemental letter, all of which have been signed by me. Will you kindly have the same duly executed on behalf of Loew's Incorporated and deliver one copy of each of the above to my agent, Mr. William McCaffrey, 501 Madison Avenue, New York City''. Signed ''Clark Gable'' in black ink, 1pp. letter measures 7.25'' x 10.5''. Two holes punched at top, near fine. (2) Deborah Kerr autograph letter signed on ''Hotel Imperial Wien'' stationery, with no date. Letter is addressed to ''My dearest Adrian'' and discusses the dissolution of her marriage to Anthony Bartley, whom she refers to as ''Tony''. Reads in part: ''I know you must have been distressed to hear about Tony & me. Dear Adrian -- there is always so much that goes on under the surface of people's relationships. And if I am to be blamed, it is only because, after many many years of truly trying for the sake of children, I said I simply cannot continue living dishonestly to myself...'' Letter on one sheet, front and verso, measures 8.25'' x 11.75''. Folds throughout, very good. (3) Moe Howard personal check signed, made out to ''Standard Oil Co. of Calif'' in the amount of $4.35. With a ''paid'' bank stamp, check measures 8.25'' x 3''. Near fine condition.
