I wish i had a scanner/photo touch up skills.
Cause there’s a full page spread in this old magazine of Fred Astaire playing tennis and lookin’ cute.
“Of the many congratulatory letters I received, I treasure on that actually come the week before I was given the Oscar:
‘Hello Cutie:-
Saw “Kitty” last night and must write this note to say “That’s It!” Yes-yes-a thousand times yes! You were superb Ginge-it was such a solid performance-the kind one seldom sees on stage or screen and it should bring you the highest honors anyone can win!!
Hope to see you soon-
As ever your-
Fred’
