TLS signed “Mary,” one page, 6.75 x 9.75, personal letterhead, May 16, 1956. Pickford writes a letter of thanks to California Governor Goodwin J. Knight, in part: “I am also grateful to Mr. Jenner and Mr. Seth Gordon for their assistance and suggestions for my godson. Both Don and I realize that all such matters must go through the appointed boards and commissions and we are also cognisant of the fact that the choices are made on competitive ratings. I seldom make such a request but in Donald Chalif’s case I know him to be a fine, clean, conscientious man and should he pass the examination for a Fish and Game Warden I feel confident he would do an excellent job. Now away from business and to the social. Buddy and I are entertaining Their Serene Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Liechtenstein on Wednesday, May 23rd. You will probably receive, in the same mail, a formal invitation to join us and meet, I am told, a very charming couple.” In very good condition, with toning, a few ink notations, office stamps to the top of the letter, and the mailing envelope and transmittal sheet stapled to the top left corner. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, a mail transmittal sheet, a Western Union telegram, and an invitation to the ‘Man of the Year’ Dinner Dance honoring Mary Pickford. Aside from acting as governor, Knight was also a Superior Court judge in Los Angeles, and presided over weddings and divorces for various Hollywood stars.
