"Dear Joan: As you know, of course, your Daddy is out here in Hollywood working with me on one of our pictures. We're having a lot of fun here in the studio and I think your Daddy really likes Mickey's home, but in spite of his seemingly happy attitude, I can just tell that he is missing you a whole lot!

From the number of things he has told me about you, I gather you are pretty much like most little girls, and all the little girls that I know (including my own) love dolls. So I thought it might be nice if you had a Snow White doll - in fact, a complete set of them! They're on their way to you now, and I'm sure they shall be very happy with their new Mama.

Mickey, Minnie, Pluto and all the rest of our barnyard family join me in sending you best wishes. Sincerely, Walt Disney."
