An Autographed Canceled Check (measures 2 3/4" x 6") (Learn More) Yvonne De Carlo (born Margaret Yvonne Middleton) was a Canadian actress from the 1940s to the 1990s. She was a romantic leading lady who starred in nearly one hundred movies in the 1940s and 1950s. You might be surprised to know that despite her great beauty (which was somewhat "exotic"), she was far from an overnight success! She had a number of uncredited roles starting in 1941, and made no impression on anybody! In 1943, she finally got a credited role in The Deerslayer (as a Native American Indian), and that still led to nothing. It was not for two more years before she was suddenly given the lead role in 1945's "Salome, Where She Danced", and that led to much better roles and then leading roles. Her exotic looks were not surprising, since her mother was of Italian-Scottish ancestry and her father was a half-Maori New Zealander! Oddly, she will forever be best remembered as Lily Munster in TV's "The Munsters"! Some of her other movies include: Salome Where She Danced, Song of Scheherazade, Slave Girl, The Ten Commandments (as Sephora), Brute Force, and This Gun for Hire. She passed away in 2007 at the age of 84. Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Yvonne De Carlo! Note that the memo section of the check says "groc & liq", obviously meaning groceries and liquor! Also note that this item was consigned to us by a man who has been a major movie memorabilia dealer from the 1980s on. During that time, he would regularly purchase collections of movie memorabilia from both dealers and collectors, and in some of those collections he purchased autographed items. Both we and our consignor feel it is quite likely that the autograph on this item is authentic, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity. Condition: very good to fine. The check is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
