Description: Offered for sale one hand-written letter from Blaze Starr. Blaze Starr (born Fannie Belle Fleming, April 10, 1932 - June 15, 2015) was an American stripper and burlesque comedian. Her vivacious presence and inventive use of stage props earned her the nicknames "The Hottest Blaze in Burlesque" and "Miss Spontaneous Combustion". She was also known for her affairs with President John F. Kennedy and Louisiana Governor Earl Kemp Long. The 1989 film Blaze is based on her memoir. In the early 1990's handwritten letters of Starr's began showing up in the autograph market in which she wrote tell-all encounters with Long and Kennedy. Her plan at the time was to reproduce the letters into a coffee table book. When she first started writing the letters she would do a nice color picture of herself in the upper left hand corner, but soon she quit doing this because she was allergic to the smell of the ink pens. So in later letters she would do much simpler drawings. This letter has the rare full-sized self-portrait drawings, lip prints, hand-drawn flowers and stars, and is signed twice- "Me Blaze" and full autograph "Blaze Starr" at the conclusion. GREAT CONTENT!! An excerpt: "...there were people all around. Robert Kennedy stood in the open door. L.B.J. stood in the hall with his arms folded. We entered an office and J.F.K. was right behind us . So Paul left we locked the door. After a short time, (very short) J.F.K. jumped up and said he was very bery sorry but he had to leave. As he was getting dresed he said, Boy if Fidel Castro had something like you he would think more about making love, and less about making war. I said why did you say that? He said oh I was just thinking out loud. Me and Paul left. I didn't realize until I saw the evening news on T.V. that the President had left the Cuban Missile Crisis meeting to spend a short time (very short) with me. Boy I really felt proud of myself." In excellent condition. Good luck!
