  Review:

  Papers consist chiefly of autograph signed letters from opera singer Amelita Galli-Curci to Marie Christiansen Mengers (1905-1965), who apparently was a fan and aspiring singer. The letters, mostly written at Galli-Curci's country estate "Sul Monte" in Highmount, N.Y., generally acknowledge having received letters from Mengers, offer pleasantries, and occasionally give advice to Mengers regarding her singing aspirations.
