American silent film actress (1894-1961), she appeared with Valentino in Blood and Sand and the silent Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. ALS signed “Mitchells Moonbeam Mac Naldi Mac Swine,” four pages both sides, 6 x 9.25, Hotel Wentworth letterhead, July 26, 1957. In a wildly animated letter to her “Lil Abner,” Naldi writes, in part: “Sometimes Moonbeam gets a bit lonesome in the sinister serenity of my bungalow here while resting the dear old Hasty Heart…Naldi takes over with strange compulsions to phone my Lil Abner…Could this location be confused with Tuxedo Park? Octavio was practically raped & violently pursued by several Social Registered Hostesses!??!…he seems to be quite a success as ‘The Man Who came to dinner at Tuxedo Park’ & has so many return engagements that Design for Devastation is driven to restricted schedules with the Merson Mauler—She informed me that she has changed & re-cast the entire ‘caste’ of her ‘Gad Tidings’ production—Several leading men & not leading with their pant’s zippers un-opened—fell by the wayside—Vesuvius’ axe can be as cold as the demolishing love—lava can be torrid…Hope Carl Chases’ blonde number is not giving me interference—heart condition or not will justifiably annihilate any potential Daisy Maes wave-ing their hoop-skirts a al Scarlet O’Hara…” Uniform toning, scattered areas of soiling, a strip of adhesive remnants along the top of the second page, and a few small areas of separation along the horizontal mailing folds, with one passing between the two lines of the signature, otherwise very good condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Naldi’s hand and signed in the return address area.
