Date Sold 10/25/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 4" x 5" [10 x 13 cm] Publicity Still (Learn More) Virginia Mayo (born Virginia Clara Jones) was an actress from the 1940s to the 1990s. At 17, she was a member of the St. Louis Municipal Opera, and she was signed to a contract by Samuel Goldwyn, but she was far from an overnight success! David O. Selznick gave her a screen test, but did not think she had a future in films, and it was not until years later in the early 1940s that she finally got some good roles. But once she had success, she hung onto it for a long time, continuing to have good parts through the 1950s! Some of her mostly Warner Bros. movies include: The Best Years of Our Lives, White Heat, Wonder Man, Backfire, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and A Song Is Born. She passed away in 2005 at the age of 84. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Virginia Mayo! Note that the item comes with a "certificate of authenticity" from G.L.O. Enterprises. Also note that this still measures 4" x 5" [10 x 13 cm]. Finally, note that many celebrities kept multiple 8" x 10" (or smaller) copies of good publicity images of themselves to sign for fans, and also many memorabilia shops sold such copy stills themselves. While they are not original theater-used stills, they are usually excellent clear copies, with a great shot of that celebrity in their heyday, which, when signed by the celebrity, makes for a wonderful framed picture on any fan's wall! Note that this autographed item was consigned to us by a husband and wife who have been collecting autographs and other movie memorabilia for over 30 years! They have obtained some of it in person (at conventions or collectible shows where celebrities appeared) or they purchased them from reputable autograph dealers who had credentials with U.A.C.C., I.A.D.A-C.C. or the Manuscript Society. In many cases they obtained certificates of authenticity for individual items, and in those cases, we have photographed the COA and put it on the auction. In some cases, they received a COA for multiple items, or did not receive one, and in those cases, we do not of course picture one. They made every attempt to only buy authentic signed items, and we believe that all of the items from their collection that we are offering (as is true of all the signed items we are auctioning) are authentic (and we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
