Scope and Content

Letter from RD to his family: he refers to the fan letters and asthma cures he has received [whilst illness delayed the filming of his part in Knight without armour], and a conciliatory message he has received from Jack Warner [of Warner Brothers], but much of the letter is taken up with a discussion of financial issues and the Donat family business in America.

Holograph. The first three sheets of the letter are missing.
