ALS, two light blue onionskin pages, 8.5 x 10.5, La Louque letterhead, May 21, 1955. Chevalier writes Don Sharpe. In full: “I am sorry we had such a little time to take in Paris but we will surely have new occasions in the near future. Up to now I have made six 26 minute films with Gammont for T.V. You have seen two of them. William Morris made an offer. N.B.C. saw them and did not decide anything. I am not in a hurry to make more as I want to go to T.V. very prudently, as it should be. Just signed with Paramount through Konher for a picture to make with Billy Wilder in the middle of 1956. And I think it would be right if you had a talk with Konher so that my T.V. work in the future could fit with my picture obligations in America. I have liked you at first sign and I hope we work happily together. In the months to come T.V. is secondary to me—stage and screen come first of course. But I want to get in T.V. slowly but solidly for exploiting it big—later—if possible.” Intersecting central horizontal and vertical folds, light wrinkling, and some edge chipping, otherwise fine condition.
