The Best of Everything
Joan Crawford Letters:
1959

January 8, 1959, to "Ruth and Ted"
Note: In her later years, "Ruth" lived at NYC's Chelsea Hotel. This letter was one of many found in the
garbage after Ruth either died or left for a nursing home and the hotel cleaned out her room.
Thanks to the Chelsea Hotel Blog (Oct. 2007) for the shot of this letter.
