In good condition, minor soiling Item 487478 ◊ c 1945 Christmas Telegram to Actor Grant Mills & Wife Elizabeth, From His Parents Rare and historical « 1945 Christmas Telegram to Actor Grant Mills & Wife Elizabeth, From His Parents and Sister. » This extra special « Holiday Greeting version of a Western Union telegram has a lovely 19th Century design on the header in red, green and browns. It measures approximately 8″ x 6.5 » (≈20.3 cm x 16.5 cm.)Grant Mills was a Broadway Actor in New York in the early part of the century. We know from research on the Internet that he performed in many plays in the early part of those early years, including appearing in an Ayn Rand play in England. But since he was mostly a bit part player, he does not have his own Wikipedia page. We do know that he appeared in a popular play back in the spring 1929, called « Once in a Lifetime, » playing the part of as Jerry Hyland. And we know that later in 1934-35 he was a supporting member of the cast for « Merrily We Roll Along, » and had many bit parts after that. Also during World War II he was part of a group of actors who performed at Veteran’s Hospitals. Shortly after the end of the war Grant Mills married Elizabeth Swett, whose family owned and operated the Lakewood Summer Resort and Theater in the town of Madison near Skowhegen, Maine. This telegram is addressed to them in Skowhegan. The Swett family owned and operated the property from 1926 until 1971. During that time it was a Who’s Who of famous personalities from silent screen, broadway, movie and television. People such as Alan London, Milton Berle, Phyllis Diller, Carol Channing, Lana Turner, John Travolta, Gloria Swanson, William Shatner, Lloyd Bridges, Patty Duke, Humphrey Bogart, and Groucho Marx, to name a few. Grant Mills still remained active as an actor participating in theater productions throughout his life until his death in 1973. In this day of almost instant communication via cell phones and Zoom, it’s hard to imagine that someone would need to use a telegram to communicate with a friend. The telegram is in good condition. It is beige, which we assume is the original color, but it has probably gotten darker over the years.

The corners and edges are all slightly bumped Please see all the photos above to confirm the condition of this telegram.
