"…from your friend, George Hurrell"

Letter discusses his displeasure with the Hollywood Photographer's Archive and also with Producer's Lab (where he used to have prints made..and where the portfolios were produced). This letter was in response to a letter asking GH about the planned MASTERS OF STARLIGHT exhibition at Los Angeles County Museum of Art, to which Lou D'Elia was a lender.

The letter discusses the "art world" and his pricing and photography as fine art.

The Correspondence series consists of letters to and from George Hurrell, primarily business but also some personal, and letters to Lou D’Elia regarding George Hurrell and his work. The bulk of the correspondence consists of photocopies made by Lou D’Elia while doing research for his exhibition of Hurrell’s photography for the Palm Springs Desert Art Museum in 2004. After copies were made, the letters were returned to storage, and unfortunately were then lost.
