To which the logical response is that someone who gets fan letters must have had genuine appeal (particularly if she was still getting said fan letters in her 80s — I can’t tell if that’s what you’re saying), or no one would have bothered writing them.
My thoughts exactly! I was reading the Obit and then had to go back and read it again and scratch my head a lot. I'd like to find some other source of info, but everything on the net seems to come back to the same obit from The Stage. (I am guessing that the author of it was a Basil Dean expert and thus knew a lot about Victoria Hopper, but was clearly biased on the subject. What is completely impossible to tell from that, is whether any of it was justified. The quotes from her in it and that ridiculous comment about the scrapbook and the fan letters inclined me to think it couldn't be, not entirely!)
