Description
Blaze Starr Autograph Letter Signed "Blaze Starr" with self-portrait and lipstick kiss mark. One page, 8.5" x 11", no place; no date. Addressed to a recipient identified only as "David", recounting a mysterious rendezvous with President Kennedy. It reads in part:"Just a line to answer your letter. Oh yes there was a lot of things I didn't tell in my book, or the movie, 'Blaze.' After Governor Earl K. Long passed away I renewed my friendship, with then President Kennedy. I had met him at a club I worked in D.C., in 1952. J.F.K. was a regular there on weekends. C.B.S. newsman, Paul Niven was a good friend of J.F.K., he would pick me up at my home in MD, about twenty minutes from D.C., and we would meet at Paul's house in Georgetown. I told J.F.K. about my fantasy with the Lincoln bedroom. He said 'Lets Go'. Jackie was away on a cruise. After about an hour J.F.K. had to leave for a meeting, Paul was to come for me. I got dressed and was redoing my makeup, when I noticed a life size statue of President Lincoln, in a corner (I thought). He was wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and a tall black hat. Paul arrived, and as I was leaving I turned and jokingly said, thank you Mr. President for the use of your bedroom. There was nothing there. I froze in my tracks. Paul said lots of people have seen him there. Queen Nora of Jordan once ran from the room in her panties and bra, and never returned. Well, neither did I. That was Abraham Lincolns 'Ghost,' as sure as I live. I guess maybe Old Abe liked to watch. What do you think?..." Signed with hearts and a star around her name. Measures 8.5" x 11", in near fine condition. Accompanied by an 8" x 10" black and white topless photograph of Blaze, signed "Bustfully yours Love Always Blaze Starr."
Condition: Boldly signed.
