TLS, two pages, 8.5 x 11, March 8, 1934. In part: “Prior to my notification to you that I was unable to render services for you, and the subsequent notice of suspension which you have given me, I have appeared, at your direction, in a photoplay of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios.
I have been advised that, in connection with the completion of the picture, retakes and added scenes are necessary, which I believe will take one or two days shooting and, in view of the fact that this work has been practically completed, except as above indicated, I feel it my obligation and duty to do my best to appear therein and finish this work, and have so stated to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and, in view of the fact that it involves only the completion of some work to the extent of a day to two of my services, I would not wish to receive any compensation therefore.
Will you therefore, grant me permission to complete my work in this picture, in discharge of my duty to finish a production in which I have appeared, with the understanding that no compensation will be paid to me therefore, and without affecting my status by reason of the notice of suspension heretofore given me.”
Signed at the conclusion by Laurel, and countersigned by studio vice president Henry Ginsberg. In fine condition, with staple holes to top left corners.
