Broadway star (1847–1924) who spent much of her youth dancing on stage for miners in the California Gold Rush, eventually becoming the protegee of actress Lola Montez. TLS signed “Lotta,” three pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 6.5, February 15, 1917. Letter to friends. In part: “Each winter I say to myself, I will not be here but in a warmer climate. However, that this will materialize next year, I hope…thank you so much for those cards, especially the one with the large strawberries. Yum! Yum! Yum! But I am told you must not eat bread and butter at the same time you eat the strawberries, but each must be eaten alone…We went in town to see Lew Telengen [sic], Farrar’s husband. He is indeed highclass [sic] in appearance and a very good actor. Then we saw Charlie Chaplin in ‘Easy Street.’ I tell you it was anything but easy what he did and the rest of the company. Splendid for fun.” In fine condition, with a few mild areas of soiling and damp staining.
