[Lawrence P. Bachmann, American film producer, head of Paramount British Productions Ltd.] Typed Letter Signed to ‘Miss Cond’, regarding two German films in the pipeline, 'The Phoenix' and 'The Lorelei', and her restaurant.
1p, 4to. Addressed to 'Dear Miss Cond' and signed 'G P Bachmann'. In fair condition, lightly aged and creased. Folded twice for postage. He apologises for the late reply to her ‘nice note and the book-plate’. He gives details of two films he has been ‘terribly busy making’, ‘neither of them stories I wrote’: ‘The Phoenix is to start in Berlin this winter as a very big film with three big stars. And The Lorelei is to be made this summer on the Rhine as a film.’ He is sorry to learn that she has given up her restaurant in Honiton, ‘Deer Park’: ‘It was a lovely place and without doubt the finest English cooking we’ve found.’ He ends by informing her that his wife has returned to California for the winter, on account of her health. ‘So I’m alone with the two poodles.’ Eileen M. Cond was an enthusiastic collector of autographs.
