Humphrey Bogart and then wife, Mayo Methot, were very likely returning from a drive for War Bonds and visiting troops, writes in this letter dated March 7, 1944 thanking what appears to be a large group of young people who greeted them on their return to California. Dear Kids, First of all, I can't tell you what a great thrill it is to be home again. We had a wonderful trip and wouldn't have missed it for anything in the world. Any sweethearts, relatives, friends you have in the service, do be terribly proud of them because they are doing a magnificent job. It was very gratifying to feel how much they enjoyed seeing anyone from home. I have started my new picture, 'To Have and Have Not' by Ernest Hemingway, and I must say it feels good to get back in the harness. again. Thank you all again for your continued loyalty and so much thanks to Eloise for all the hard work she has done for me. Sincerely, Humphrey Bogart. 8 1/2" x 11" in excellent condition with a very clean signature in steel point fountain pen. Note: it was the film TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT that Bogart and Bacall fell in love
