Serling, Rod. Boldly signed in full, "Rod Serling.". (1924-1975) American entertainer, creator of The Twilight Zone.

Typed Letter Signed. One page, Quarto, on personal letterhead, Pacific Palisades, California, June 6, 1966. To Rabbi Maxwell Dubin. Interesting letter reneging on an invitation to speak on a forum, occasioned by last minute changes in the production of a play of Serling's that had been planned for New York but must be transplanted to London. Serling writes, in part:

" …Early this morning I received a call from New York indicative of some new planning on my play production. It appears now that its initial performance will be done in London and to that end I now have to make plans for a departure for Europe late in the Fall for an indeterminate period of time. I seriously doubt if it would be realistic for me to make the commitment to you for your forum when my own plans seem so totally up in the air. It would appear that there is every likelihood I would have to renege at a sufficiently late hour to both embarrass and inconvenience you …"

Very Fine.
Estimated Value $150 - 250.
From the Gerald Burg collection.


 
Realized $230
