Best.-Nr. 27744This American screenwriter director producer and playwright co-authored the screenplay for "Boys Town" winning an Academy Award for Best Writing; in 1948 he became chief of production at MGM Studios ascending to the presidency in 1951 with the departure of Louis B. Mayer filling that office until 1956; among his plays are the Tony Award-winning "Sunrise at Campobello" for which he also wrote the screenplay. ANS 1p 7¼" X 10½" n.p. n.y. 1966. Fine. Near the bottom of a one sentence typed note dated 6 April 1966 sent him by noted Lincoln Scholar Arnold F. Gates 1914-93 on letterhead of "The Civil War Round Table of New York" Schary pens a bold reply in blue ballpoint. Gates had asked Schary "If you can make this one I would be very pleased to have you attend as my guest" referring no doubt to a Civil War Round Table guest lecture -- to which Schary replied "Dear Mr. Gates -- I would have enjoyed being there -- by some breakdown of U.S. Postal Service -- your invitation reached me on the 20th of April -- Perhaps next time -- Thanks -- Dore Schary." Most unusual in this form! Schary produced the 1955 documentary "The Battle of Gettysburg" hence his proven interest in the topic. unknown
