An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed 8" x 10" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Billie Dove was an actress from the 1920s to the 1930s. She had a three-year affair with Howard Hughes but she ended the relationship because he tried to control her career. Some of her movies include: Blondie of the Follies, The Black Pirate, Kid Boots, The American Beauty, and A Notorious Affair. Billie passed away in 1997 at the age of 94. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Billie Dove! Note that this is an original vintage still from the 1920s, but that Dove signed it in the 1970s. About the Collection this Item Comes From Note that this item (and 74 others we are auctioning this week, each in its own auction) was consigned to us by a man who was a major movie memorabilia dealer in the 1970s and 1980s. During that time, he was approached by an elderly man named Sterling H. Bond, who had collected autographs for many years (starting in the early 1930s), and who sold the dealer his entire collection. Bond had tracked down many important Hollywood celebrities and obtained autographed items (often personalized to him), and he also had autographs from celebrities who were not in the film business (including famous politicians!). The dealer was so impressed with this collection that rather than sell it item by item, he began collecting autographs himself, sending celebrities items by Registered Mail which they then autographed and returned to him! He also purchased a few autographed items from top autograph dealers of the 1970s and 1980s. Now, decades later, the dealer has consigned these autographed items to us. So all of these 75 autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained by long time collector Sterling H. Bond, or were obtained by this memorabilia dealer, and we feel certain that the autograph on this item is authentic! Note that each of the 75 items from this consignor all have this paragraph on them. Condition: good to very good. There are some small tears in the borders and some creases scattered in the still.
