Scope and content
Thanks Beaton for his 'enchanting' letter. Mrs Heinz saw Greta Garbo in New York. She asked Garbo what she thought of Beaton's Memoirs. She 'laughed, waved her hand and muttered something non-commital'. Mrs. Heinz said that Garbo was 'old and lonely and obviously delighted by the reminiscences'. Is trying to get together a sale of first editions and manuscipts at Christies. Asks if Beaton has anything he would like to put in. Gives Beaton small corrections for his diaries.
