Joan Crawford typed letter signed. Crawford writes to a fan on her personal stationery. Letter, dated 30 June 1960 reads in full, ''Dear Patricia Ann, Thank you so much for your charming letter. I so enjoyed hearing from you, and your letter is a beautiful one. You are very well-informed, and you write an intelligent letter. I am sending a photograph to you under separate cover that I hope you will enjoy. Aren't you sweet to want me to do more television shows. At the present time, I am planning a month's vacation, as my children and I are going on a cruise to South America, and we are so excited we can't stand it. We will live on the ship, and will stop a few days at ports at Barbados, Trinidad, Rio de Janeiro, Santos (Sao Paulo), Montevideo and Buenos Aires. I think it will be a wonderfully exciting experience for all of us. I am delighted that you are enjoying seeing my films on television. I am sorry, but I don't have a fan club, Patricia. I travel so much, and I just do not have the time to devote to a fan club, and it would not be fair for me to allow anyone to take on all those responsibilities when I have not the time to cooperate fully, unfortunately. Bless you, and all good wishes to you. I hope you and your family have a lovely summer. [signed] Joan Crawford''. 2pp. letter on 2 sheets is signed in black ink. Measures 6.25'' x 7''. Crease at fold through center, overall near fine.
