An Autographed Contract (measures 8 1/2" x 11"; 23 pages) (Learn More)

Otto Preminger was a prominent, talented Ukrainian director from the 1930s through the 1980s. Some of his films include: Laura (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film), Anatomy of a Murder, Advise and Consent, Porgy and Bess, The Man with the Golden Arm, Where the Sidewalk Ends, The Cardinal (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film), In Harm's Way, and Angel Face. He passed away in 1986 at the age of 80. Note that several of Preminger's movie title sequences and posters were designed by Saul Bass!
Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Otto Preminger! Also note that we have photographed the first page of the contract, as well as the page with the signatures. We also photographed one other page, because that page had changes that the star initialed (see our images). We did not photograph the remaining pages, but you can see above how many pages there are in all. Also included, but not photographed, is a folder that contains a 23-page agreement between Carlyle Productions and Warner Bros., which stated that they were "borrowing" Otto Preminger from Warner Bros., and detailing how that worked. It is a really interesting document, but it is only signed by representatives of the two companies, and NOT by Mr. Preminger.

Note that our consignor has been a memorabilia dealer for the past 30 years, and he tells us that he is certain this autograph is authentic. In some cases he obtained the autographs in person, and in other cases (like with contracts and agreements), it is obvious the signatures are authentic, but he vouches for the authenticity of every item that he has consigned to us, and we also feel certain that the autographs are authentic.

Condition: very good to fine.
