The most accomplished American stage actress of the early 20th century began as a child, and while she did it all -- comedy, tragedy -- it is for Ibsen and Shakespeare roles that she's best known; she appeared in silent film versions of two of her greatest stage hits, "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" (1913) and "Vanity Fair" (1915). ALS, 2pp (single leaf), 5½" X 8½", Los Angeles, CA, n.y. Addressed to "Dearest Drucie" (Drusilla Pierce, a Los Angeles friend). Very good. Original folds (none weakened) evident; light glass ring near top of second page smudges half a dozen words. On "Hotel Van Nuys" letterhead, Fiske urges her friend to " run over to Hollywood any time next Sunday evening -- & have a little time with me and with old-old-old friends. and then when we meet we can plan for the meeting of Tuesday. I am deeply eager you shall attend with me -- next Tuesday. Save that day." Arranges details, gives addresses, etc. Signed simply "Minnie." Undated, but likely 1920s vintage.

Manuscript / Paper Collectible
1p, 4to. In fair condition, aged and worn, folded three times, with labels from mount on blank reverse. With RSPCA date stamp. Singular signature, with all three parts of Fiske's name running into one another, and the middle name elongated. Addressed to Fairholme at the RSPCA, London. 'I regret that the article by Senor de Toledo [i.e. J. Garcia de Toledo of Malaga, Honorary President of the IHA] d[i]d not reach me in time to make it possible for me to send it with our other Anti-Bull-Fight MSS, to the Humane Conference. I hope this fact did not embarrass you.' She assures him that the article 'will surely be included in the book which is to be published, - - a book which will give the history of the Anti-Bull-Fight in every country where such performances are allowed.' She ends by apologising for not being able to attend the conference.
