Muffin Face to Dearest

Muffin Face to Dearest

A lady, possibly connected to the Edwina Booth Grossman family, writes to a much-loved man who seems to be in their New York house. On a "Mighty cold, gorgeous day" she suggests Harrison put a window in the east side of shed so he can paint there. If lonely, he should give Dorothy Morison a call at Lenox 9190 and go to the theatre. The lady concludes her letter with "Must stop now. Loads of love dear from your Muffin Face".
