TLS signed “Sincerely, Montgomery of Alamein,” one page, 4.75 x 7.5, Field Marshal The Viscount of Alamein letterhead, July 15, 1959. Montgomery writes Arthur Allighan, publicity director at Walt Disney Production’s United Kingdom studio, regarding a film premiere. In full: “Thank you for your letter and kind invitation. I regret I am unable to accept for the 29th July. But on the evening of Thursday 30th July I have to be in London for a dinner and I would like to send to see the film a young Swiss boy (age 14) who will be staying with me. My chauffeur would be with him—total 2 persons. Can you let me have two good seats for the evening performance on 30th July. At what time would it begin? If they report well on the film, I would come and see it myself at a later date.” Intersecting folds, scattered creasing, and soiling, otherwise fine condition. The film in question is the European opening of Sleeping Beauty, which debuted on July 29.
