An Original Vintage Autographed Postcard (measures 3 1/2" x 5 1/2") (Learn More) Ida Lupino was an English actress and director from the 1930s to the 1970s. Her father was English comedian Stanley Lupino, and her mother took took her to an audition in 1932, and she got the part. In 1934, when she was 16, she went to Hollywood, and she had a series of minor roles. It was not until 1939's "The Light That Failed" that she got a better part, and she had some major roles in the early 1940s, including The Sea Wolf and High Sierra. In the late 1940s, discouraged with the parts she was offered, she began directing and producing movies! She passed away in 1995 at the age of 77. Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Ida Lupino! Note that this item 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 consigned these autographed items to us, and we have sold many of them in our previous "all signed" auctions, and this set of auctions contains the last of them. All of these autographed items from this consignor 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! Condition: good. There is a tiny hole with ink staining in the upper left, in Lupino's hair (it looks like someone pressed too hard with a pen and it went through the card). There is glue residue on the back from when the postcard was attached to a mat. Other than the above, the postcard is in pretty good condition! Learn More about condition grades
