(Learn More) Dorothy Lamour was born in Louisiana in 1914. She was Miss New Orleans at 16, and she became the vocalist in the Herbie Kaye band, and married the bandleader. She was spotted by Paramount Pictures, and after a few uncredited appearances, she starred in The Jungle Princess, where she wore a floral print wrap-around sarong, and she was a sensation. She made five more "sarong pictures" and she also starred in the "Road" movies opposite Bob Hope and Bing Crosby (sadly in the last of these she was dubbed too old, and she was cast aside for a younger sexy Joan Collins). She also made made other movies, but she will always be remembered as the sexy sarong girl! She passed away in 1996 at the age of 81. Important Added Info: Note that BOTH the letter AND the album page have been personally autographed (signed) by Dorothy Lamour. The letter and album page could be matted with the included lobby card and framed together to make a cool display! Our consignor is a very longtime collector of movie paper who purchased this lot years ago, and it was signed, but he doesn't know how the signatures were obtained, and he (and we) believe it is very likely that the autographs are authentic. Also note that the lobby card was trimmed and it now measures 11" x 13 1/2". Condition: good. The letter was mounted to a heavy board and slightly trimmed on the left and right edges, and it has slightly darkened unevenly. The album page has a photo of Lamour glued to the bottom right and it has had its bottom left corner diagonally clipped. The lobby card has had approximately 1/4" trimmed from its left and right blank borders, and it has pinholes, smudges, and faint stains scattered throughout, as well as an Australian rating snipe glued to the upper right.
