An Autographed 3" x 5" [8 x 13 cm] Index Card with 8" x 10" RE-STRIKE Still (Learn More) Bette Davis was a legendary actress from the 1930s to the 1980s. She was Warner Bros. leading female star throughout the late 1930s, and she continued as a major star throughout the 1940s, and she had one of her greatest triumphs, All About Eve (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), in 1950. She refused to retire, and took out a famous ad in Variety seeking work (citing her two Oscars!), and she starred in What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film) and Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte in the 1960s. Some of her other movies include: Dangerous (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Jezebel (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Now, Voyager (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Of Human Bondage, Star (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Mr. Skeffington (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Little Foxes (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Letter (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Dark Victory (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film) and too many others to list! She passed away in 1989 at the age of 81. Important Added Info: This index card has been personally autographed (signed) by Bette Davis! Also included is an 8" x 10" re-strike still (likely from the 1980s) that the index card could be matted and framed together with (not pictured)! Our consignor purchased this signed index card from the estate of New York Daily News photographer, Harry Warnecke. Warnecke was a legendary collector who photographed thousands of celebrities from the 1930s to the 1960s, and he would ask the celebrities to sign index cards for him, and he would then type the name of the star and the date they gave him the autograph at the top of each card. After he passed away in 1984, his collection of cards passed to his only surviving relative, his niece, and our consignor purchased it directly from her in 2005. What makes the signed index cards from this collection so special is that NONE of the cards were signed by anyone other than the stars themselves (many signatures of these stars from this period were sometimes signed by secretaries or people who worked for the studio). So this autograph was 100% certainly signed by Miss Davis herself. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
