TLS, one page, 7 x 10, personal letterhead, August 12, 1963. Letter addressed to “Whom It May Concern.” In full: “Evelyn Hellem was my personal secretary for approximately five years. She was very capable and dependable and her work was most satisfactory and much appreciated. Miss Hellem left for personal reasons and of her own accord.” Uniform toning from previous display, a bit heavier at edges, and mounting remnants to reverse of corners, otherwise fine condition. Hellem abruptly retired after being involved in an auto accident which resulted in someone’s death, when leaving Heifitz’s home one day.
