Description
Frank Lloyd Wright Contract With NBC Signed Three Times A fine content typed letter signed three times, "Frank Lloyd Wright" (twice) and "Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation" three pages on National Broadcasting Company, Inc. letterhead, 8.5" x 11", Chicago, November 14, 1952. A letter, or rather a contract, in which Wright accepts terms offered by N.B.C., that Wright "as independent contractor, you shall furnish us your personal service and all script material for an interview of you wherein you shall discuss philosophically matters which you have learned in the course of your life and your views concerning them for recording by a sound-on-film motion picture, to be produced by and for us, with an exhibition running time of approximately 25-30 minutes..." Wright agrees to this for a fee of $1,000. We believe that this interview was conducted by Hugh Downs on a program entitled Wisdom with Hugh Downs. An important and historic document. Apart from a file hole and staple at top left, this wonderful piece is in excellent condition. Accompanied by COA from PSA/DNA.Auction Info
